If you are unable to attend a class, please do not call the U3AM Office to apologise.
Record your absence online in Member Wizard or advise your class convenor (previously called class rep). Notifying absences in this way will ensure that your apology is received and our class attendance records are accurate.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Note: If you are unsure how to record your absences online, follow the steps below:
- Log in to Member Portal.
- Click on My Classes from the main menu. Your list of enrolled classes will be displayed on the screen.
- To enable the menu items in the left panel, select the class from which you will be absent. Select Advise Absence from the left panel.
- When the Advise Absence screen is displayed, click on the Date field and tick one or more dates from the drop-down list for the days on which you will be absent. Click on the Save button.
- A ‘No emails were sent’ message will show on the screen. Click on the OK button. Your advice of absence (aka apology) will be automatically recorded on the Attendance Sheet. However, no emails were sent to the tutor nor convenor to inform them of your apology. This is to avoid them getting spammed by emails.
