Course description

Course overview 

The website allows members to change and update their own records; allow branch secretaries to access their branch records to communicate and consult with members, and allow local branch web-page editors to edit special branch web pages within the union website.

Branch secretaries will learn how to access the records of their own branch members and bulk-email them.  They will also be able to communicate and consult with members from any browser on any computer. 

Web page editors will be able to upload information and edit web pages from any browser on any computer. The aim is for all branches to have a means to inform, advise and involve their members in the life of the union.
