Settings up Meeting Participants for Success

The Technology plan is to ensure Meeting Participants are comfortable with the eSCRIBE platform prior to attending their first meeting. As eSCRIBE Administrators,  the document covers a logistic plan for managing devices, tips on training Meeting Participants and configuring eSCRIBE.

Technology Plan: Resource Requirements

1. What devices will you be using?  Is it a mix of iOS / Windows/ Browser?
2. Are all the devices up to date with their software?
   • Review the Minimum Requirements article for success criteria
3.  Is the eSCRIBE app installed on all devices? 
4. Who controls installing apps on the devices?
5. Who troubleshoots any issues with the device? During a council meeting? Outside a council meeting?
6. Are there extra devices and chargers on hand?

Technology Plan: Training and Staff Development Needs

1. Will you be offering a “101” class on how to use the device outside of the eSCRIBE app training?
2. Ensure all user accounts are active and iPad/Windows licenses are enabled
3. Designate one user as your “Champion” user who can help facilitate Meeting Participants questions before and after the practice sessions and Meetings.
