While we welcome congregational administrators to register their voting members, each voting member must have a unique email address listed in their registration.
Each voting member must have access to a ‘smart device’ – a device that can access the internet – in order to vote. It is recommended that you have access to a computer/laptop/Ipad to view the proceedings in addition to a phone for voting.
There will be several orientation sessions prior to assembly to familiarize voting members with the platform for the assembly as well as the voting software. Once registration closes, voting members will be invited to those sessions. It is strongly recommended that you attend at least one of these sessions as there’ll be limited technical help available on the day of assembly.
