If you’re reading this, you’ve already registered as a Cyber-Seniors volunteer and you’ve completed the Mentor Training Program on the Cyber-Seniors portal.
The next step is to understand our services (webinars and phone tech support) and how you will volunteer to help deliver those services. The New Mentor Info Document and video tell you what to expect and what is expected of you while you’re volunteering.
Login to uSked to view volunteer opportunities. You MUST BE MATCHED WITH AN ASSIGNMENT IN USKED in order to earn volunteer hours.
There are 3 types of assignments that are currently posted on uSked. Further instructions on each of these assignments are below the descriptions.
Assignments in uSked are assessed at 1.5 hours per assignment and hours from the previous week Sunday-Saturday are recorded in the Cyber-Seniors portal by end of day on Mondays (or if Monday is a holiday, the next business day). All school coordinators are aware of this timing.
Please note that you must be matched in uSked as a mentor on a webinar in order to get volunteer hours for those webinars. You will not be awarded volunteer hours for observing a webinar.
Go to your Cyber-Seniors portal Dashboard for your Volunteer Hours Report. To generate it, click on the report icon, enter the time period you want, then click Generate Report. You can then download it from the link that appears.
If you require more services/volunteer hours and are having a hard time getting enough hours in, please email us at scheduling@cyberseniors.org . We are always looking for more help, whether for our webinar or phone support services, or other tasks that Cyber-Seniors is doing.
