Please note the following changes have been made in Member Wizard since it was introduced at the beginning of Term 2.

Advise Absences using a date range

Member Wizard now allows you to submit apologies for your class(es) by specifying the date range when you will be absent from the class. This date range will cover all your enrolled classes that have sessions within your specified period.

Here are the steps to record your absence:

  1. Log in to Member Portal.
  2. Click on My Classes from the main menu. Your list of enrolled classes will be displayed on the screen.
  3. Select the class from which you will be absent. Select Advise Absence from the left panel.
  4. There are now 2 options: Select exact dates (for specific dates for a selected class) or Use a date range (to apply to all your enrolled classes).
  5. Your enrolled classes that have sessions on the dates within the selected date range will be displayed. Untick the class(es) for which you do not wish to advise absence.
  6. Click on the Save button.
  7. A No emails were sent message will show on the screen. Click OK.  

Volunteer via Update my Groups

When you log in to the Member Portal, there is now a menu option called Update my Groups. Previously, this option was only under the Change my Contact Details screen.

Select this menu option to express interest in volunteering for a role with U3AM.

You must be a current member before enrolling for a class

To enrol in any class, you need to be a paid financial member of U3A Manningham. You can join as a new member at any time, or renew your membership by paying the annual membership fee during the renewal period in October.

Website Classes List
You can now view the list of classes without logging in to the Member Portal. Click on Classes List which is found under the Member Wizard drop-down menu located in the top right corner.

Class restrictions

For popular classes, a restriction is in place to ensure a fairer opportunity for members to enrol in at least one class. For more information, go to Classes > Classes and Activities> Class Restrictions.
