Vdandekar Driver

Hi @vdandekar , welcome to HelpBerkeley.org and thanks very much for volunteering!

Our dispatchers have made you a driver, so now you can access the driver-only subcategories (subcats) on the website.

The next driver training sessions, on Zoom, are listed on this thread: https://go.helpberkeley.org/t/new-driver-training-this-week/874. Can you reply to the thread and let us know which session you will attend?

Until then, here is a link to the core information required for drivers to ramp up:

(only clickable by drivers) . Let us know if you have any questions!

Thank you for again for volunteering your time with us, we’re glad to have you on board!

@vdandekar, thanks so much for volunteering! Will you be able to attend a driver orientation session at 11:00am this Sat 101/10?

Hi @MichelThouati ,
How long is the Driver Orientation?

Hi @Fruit_salad,

When I click on the training sessions link, it says that it’s private. I am also only able to volunteer on the weekends. Is that alright?

Hi @vdandekar, it is about 75 minutes.

I corrected that, @vdandekar, you should be able to click on it now.

It is totally alright! Thanks very much for volunteering!

Ok. Unfortunately. I have a prior commitment at 11:30am that day, so I won’t be able to make it that day.

@MichelThouati I can make the Thursday training at 2pm. Would that be alright?

The next sessions are Tuesday at 11:00am and Tuesday at 4:00pm. But we could also schedule an 8pm session that day if that is easier.

Are you able to access the full schedule now?

[EDIT] I did not see your previous reply, sorry. Yes, Thursday 2:00pm is no problem–let’s do that. I will tag you on the new driver training thread.

Ok cool! I will mark Thursday @ 2pm in my calendar!

How do I fill out the Driver Schedule spreadsheet? Or will that be done for me?

@vdandekar, we will do it together during the Thursday meeting. But if you feel comfortable doing it on your own before then, feel free!
Red = do not schedule me
Pink = I’d rather not be scheduled
White = open for a run
Don’t forget to fill in how many times every 2 weeks you are willing to volunteer.

Thank you so much! I’m looking forward to the training. Is there a specific zoom link I need to access the meeting?
