******************************************
 

Who should attend: Anyone currently using Shelterly and those interested in learning more. Priority registration will be given to new users and those gaining familiarity with Shelterly.
 

******************************************

How it Works:
Today: Register for the Virtual Exercise

Thursday, August 20: We’ll email you prework to do within a Shelterly incident prior to the live virtual exercise

Prework is not required to attend the exercise.
Prework can be used as homework after the exercise is over as practice.
******************************************

Thursday, August 27 from 6:00pm to 7:00pm (PT): Join the Virtual Quick Start Exercise as we demonstrate the prework step-by-step and review best practices and tips.

We’ll be starting from the basics, working through each step at a slower pace throughout the exercise.

******************************************
Prework:
For users familiar with Shelterly, our prework includes an individual Shelterly Incident Link, hotline calls to enter, debrief practice, and shelter intake from walk-ins and field assignments. Prework should take less than one hour to complete.
******************************************
Homework:
If you’re not that familiar with Shelterly and not quite ready for prework - no problem!
Feel free to register for the Virtual Exercise and join us on Thursday, August 27 from 6:00pm to 7:00pm (PT) for the live demonstration.
Then, use the prework we sent to you as homework to practice with for the next 14 days.
******************************************
Additionally, thanks to feedback received, we'll send out additional, more in-depth, injects so those who have completed the prework/homework can take more advanced steps using Shelterly.
******************************************
We’ll also provide direct links to the Shelterly Quick Start step-by-step training guides and module training videos for support.
******************************************
This training exercise is now eligible for a Shelterly Certificate. Upon completion of three Virtual Exercises (including verification that all work in the exercise has been completed), participants will receive a Shelterly Certificate of Completion.
