Teleconference Schedule
Moodle | Participant Resources


Simulation Schedule: November 2011

(Note: Watch Moodle's "Latest News" and "Upcoming Events" for any last-minute changes in conference times)

Check the Message Centre for messages at least three times a day (morning, noon, & evening) and inform all others in your team any time there are messages that need answering. Do this also on the days when teleconferences or working group sessions take place. When you receive a message, immediately send a brief message acknowledging that you have read the message and indicating how soon the other team can expect to receive a more detailed response from your organization. As a matter of professional courtesy, all messages deserve a carefully considered response within 24 hours.

Note: All times listed on this schedule are Central European Time which is GMT + 1 hr.
