    Let's celebrate 2023 on Zoom by sharing good stuff!


     


    Resource Exchange FUN

           

      Bring your favorite training content, creative idea, website, author/book, volunteer management tool, or job aid. Share your resource and collect resources from others!


    Don't have a resource?  Attend anyway. Can't attend? Send your resource to education@doviasacramento.org and we'll share it for you.

    Important Notes

    • Is DOVIA blocked? Are you able to receive attachments? If not, please register with your personal email to avoid firewall issues.
    • Participants are encouraged to join by computer with video and not mobile phone as the workshop might involve writings, participation via breakout rooms and annotation function, and the opportunity to interact with others.
    • Test your Zoom account before the session for maximum participation. We recommend using the desktop client. Only use the web client if you cannot access the other options.
    • Please note that we record our Zoom events at times for sharing and posting on our website.
    • Registrants will be emailed a Zoom link the day before the event to the email address used for registration.

      Registration is free to DOVIA Sacramento members and required to access the program.

      Please consider the registration option of making a $25 donation to DOVIA Sacramento.

One example is under last name: Last Name - DOVIA Sacramento.  The general public is welcome to attend, but will be billed $25 after attending and will receive a copy of the slide deck, recording, and attendance certificate upon request.

    • Important notes: 

      • Registration closes 5:00pm Pacific Time the day prior. 
      • Our Board members are volunteers.  Once we are in the learning workshop, we are participating and not checking registration. So sorry, we won't receive an email or a voicemail.
      • Does your organization block Zoom? Be sure to test for Zoom access days in advance so you don't miss the training. Many people use their personal computers to avoid this firewall issue or schedule with IT services for permission. 
      • We send the Zoom link a day or two before the event and the morning of the event (Pacific Time). Sometimes the access email may go to 'promotions,' 'junk,' or 'spam' folders.
