Virtual Meeting Guidelines

Until public health guidance changes to allow for groups of more than 50 people to meet in a single physical location, our local will continue to conduct our Committee, Executive, and GMM meetings over video conference. This is far from ideal, but the best we can hope for given the circumstance. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Meeting Access

Any CUPW 730 member with a computer or smartphone and an internet connection is able to participate in our virtual GMMs via free video conferencing. Those wishing to attend the meeting that do not own, or have access to, a computer or smartphone, or need a sign-language aid, should contact our office [union@cupwedm.net or 780-423-9000 ext. 1 or 2].

Registration & Deadlines

1. Deadlines: Those registering after the deadline will not be admitted. Every notice clearly states the GMM date and registration procedure. All notices are shared well in advance, and are advertised via our email dispatches, FB page, and cupw730.ca. For special circumstances, or help registering, contact union@cupwedm.net before the deadline.

2. Registration Requirements: Participants must include all the requested registration information and is reviewed manually. This is done to preserve meeting security and ensure voting integrity (members only).

3. Confirmation: Your registration will be reviewed for confirmation after the registration deadline. Once reviewed you will receive another email confirming your registration as well as a link to the GMM.

4. Meeting Day: The waiting room will be open 30 minutes prior to the official GMM start time. Once the meeting moderators have everything properly set up, they will start manually admitting members into the meeting. Please be patient and do not log off.
