    Part 2

    [REPLACE with Zoom account email]

    You are on this calendar invite because you have been added as a co-host and representative of your CoP or project to the onboarding. If you cannot attend this instance or want to be removed permanently, please write to #admin channel and we will offboard you from the resources.

    [REPLACE with Zoom link to part 2]

    Sign into the meeting, use the 'Reactions' menu at the bottom of the screen to 'raise your hand'. This will let the host know that you need to be made a co-host.

    Info related to onboarding can be found:
    Meetup: [REPLACE with link to meetup]
    WIKI: https://github.com/hackforla/admin/wiki/Onboarding-Events
    1Password vault: HfLA Onboarding - panelists (all the links we are trying to keep private)

    [REPLACE with End Note]


    Add this to the last one in nov
    Note: This is the last onboarding for the year. We will schedule the 2025 onboardings in December.


    Add this to the last one in june
    Note: This is the last onboarding until August.

    Part 1

    You are on this calendar invite because you have been added as a panelist to the onboarding. If you do not want to be a panelist anymore, please write to #admin channel and we will offboard you from all the resources.

    The zoom login for the webinar should be in your email (it comes direct from zoom). Search for it using the text "Panelist for Hack for LA Onboarding" If you don't have it, write to us on the #admin Slack channel.

    You can also log in using CTS: Zoom4 (credentials in the 1Password vault: Zoom)

    Info related to onboarding can be found:
    Meetup: [REPLACE with link to meetup]
    WIKI: https://github.com/hackforla/admin/wiki/Onboarding-Events
    1Password vault: HfLA Onboarding - panelists (all the links we are trying to keep private)

    This issue takes 12 hours of labor to accomplish
    it requires that you to

    • be co-organizer on meetup
    • have access to 1password vault for Onboarding - admin and Onboarding - panelist

    Notes

    • added Email column to spreadsheet so that we didn't have to manually change it for Monday/Tuesday
    • Added End Note column to spreadsheet so that we don't have to manually add it to the corresponding invite(s). Will need to update for every year
    • Had to use Slack to adjust spacing created by Mail Merge
    • Mail Merge documents have the invites for January 2025 but I did not create them on the calendar
    • Need to review the most efficient way to create calendar invites in this particular case
