October 24th, 2006 by learning without borders in · Workshop · 3 Comments

Procedures for registration and money handling

1 – Everyone promote the workshop (with strategic guidance from the

marketing group). Keep copies of fliers and tickets.

2 – Prior to each wednesday weekly meeting, each group member is to

email / contact Ian (mobile: 0418675502) if they need more tickets

or fliers, and he will print more and bring them to class.

3 – At each weekly meeting of the group (Wednesdays), each group

member is to:

a. Bring in registration forms and cash and give to Ian. Ian will

maintain a registration list and hold the money.

b. Pick up more fliers / tickets.

4 – After the last group meeting of the semester, Ian will maintain

email contact with all group members – and ask the same of the

group!

We will arrange money handling procedures after Uni finishes for

the year when that arrives.

It has been proposed that we explore this success further as a legacy to future workshop groups at UTS. Kathy Gelding provided us with the following article:
