As
per the HSA Constitution, the HSA is attempting this innovation in order to
reach as many members as possible. Should the meeting for any reason fail the
HSA will then arrange for a backup date to either rerun the eAGM or have a
physical meeting in the case of insufficient members to render a quorum. In
which case this will be an extraordinary meeting. We therefore ask for your
assistance and patience as we assist you as best as possible to take part.
Software: Zoom
Please
note: HSA Members only.
An individual’s bandwidth capabilities will
determine the strength and clarity of connection.
RSVP: Please visit www.hsa.org.za to sign up for the
event – follow the link from the page eAGM notice.
NB:
Be sure to log in to the website before signing up and ensure your membership
is up to date as we will be using this portal to generate your CPD
certificates.
Accessing
the software:
- Zoom can be used on your computer or tablet and cell
phone (just download the app from the supported app store). Once registered,
you will receive a confirmation email to participate for the specific
event. For logging in use the provided meeting details given to you on
confirmation.
- Please ensure you have sufficient bandwidth to
receive the voice data and a microphone in order to be heard with
speaking. How do you know if your computer or device will work? If you can
Skype without any disruptions and with good clarity from your device then
you can likely use Zoom.
- It is suggested you sign up or go into the Zoom meeting
room ahead of time, especially if on computer in order for the background
software to load on your computer. Before the meeting starts you will be
in a waiting room. Access will be granted to presenters and when you need
to speak so please be patient on orientation of the software please.
Instructions:
- On first trying to Zoom, you may be required
to install software. Please ensure you use the test sessions described
above or log in early to the event to allow this to happen.
- Please be patient the software can take some
time for everyone to orientate themselves
- Voice control will be activated so that only
one person may speak at a time. You may pose written questions in the area
provided or seek help from the administrator, “HSA Admin” – you can send
them a private message in the software.
- If you are granted voice options, the use of
headphones is preferable as this will decrease your own background noise
or unnecessary feedback. Otherwise please ensure that your speakers are
not causing interference with your microphone.
- Please ensure your own webcam / video is
turned off.
- Regarding raising questions, push the question
button on the right of the screen should you wish to raise a question or
contact “HSA Admin”.
- Once the eAGM is completed please log out.
