Mark your calendars for the upcoming Technology Training Call Dates:  
May 6th, 20th, & 27th
June 10th
 
These calls are always on Mondays at 8 pm EST, 5 pm PST. You can register by clicking here.

These trainings usually take place one to three times a month on Mondays. Once you are registered you will regularly get the reminders 24 hours & 2 hours before each call. Also keep an eye on the monthly eNews for upcoming dates, or find them at the registration page.

The trainings can be customized to cover what you, personally, are looking to get out of them.  You are encouraged to please email Michael@TeamGood.org in advance about what you would like to get out of the trainings or to simply say you will be on the call. Depending on how many people come to the calls, we try to have more trainers and create groups that are leveled to create the best learning experience for you.

There are typically 2-3 trainers on these calls. Each training usually goes 20-25 minutes, so on just one training call you will have the opportunity to take part in as many as four different trainings. If you prefer, you can stay in one training for the duration of the call. We work to customize the trainings for the people who attend them and to focus on the needs of the participants.

Topics covered include (but are not limited to) the following: Using Facebook & Twitter as well as a technology called Slack, the Maestro call interface (social webinar), and general technology questions. WILPF US also has accounts on Pintrest & MediaRevolt.org which we will be glad to show you how to utilize.

Any questions about the trainings, technology in general, or the other social media platforms, please email michael@teamgood.org and/or fellow WILPFer julie@teamgood.org. Julie is one of the regular trainers on these calls.
