IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS


Thank you for registering for our Virtual Town Hall Meeting.

Your participation is very important to us, to be able to offer services that matter to you.

    Now you are hooked up to exchange email messages with AMNSIS! Congratulations!

  • 2. Do the Speed Test . Click here
    This is a great way to find out about your internet connection.
    If your DOWNLOAD speed is less than 12 Mbps, you will enjoy listening in to the meeting from your phone, please use the dial in number listed in our email to you.
    If your DOWNLOAD speed is 12 Mbps or higher, click the meeting link and join from your home computer or laptop or tablet. You will be able to see and hear the presenters and panelists, as well as answer our polling questions, raise your hand, ask questions and give answers.

  • 3. If you are going to be joining us from your computer, the event will open two hours ahead of time, come in early to set up.
    A. Make sure all your tabs are closed and all software closed
    B. Click the link for the event found in your email invite.
    C. Download the extension for webex when prompted. (This will not hurt your computer or create a security risk for your system.)
    D. Do a sound check. Make sure you select "Use computer audio", click on the audio controls at the lower centre of the screen.

  • 4. Whether you attend by phone or computer, all attendees will be muted
    (there could be up to 10 thousand of us in here, so we can't all have our mics on!)
    As an attendee, your camera will not be sending us a video feed of your beautiful face, but we will be able to see that you are here, by the name you registered with.

  • 5. If you have a question, please type it in the Q & A, we will try to answer as many as we can during the call, but if we don't get to you, we will email you a response after the event.

  • 6. We thank you for answering our polling questions through the event, these will help us find out what is most important on everyone's mind, and help make sure we hit the mark with our efforts.
    If we do a good job of connecting with you and taking in all the feedback here, we are more likely to be heard when we show up to do our representation work out there with feds, province, etc.

  • 7. Thank you for submitting the post-event survey, this is helpful for us!

    Share the invitation/registration link with friends and family, and come back for the next event.
    We sure are glad to see you all, AMNSIS welcomes all the kinship.

  • 8. About scrapping in public: we know that kin has disagreements, and it is okay to disagree.
    Just try to be respectful of others opinions, we want to be sure that everyone is heard.

  • 9. Your privacy is respected here, any comments, questions, feedback you offer will not be seen by the public, only the event host and presenters.
    We will not share your name or contact information with any third parties.
