Assignments in uSked are assessed at 1.5 hours per assignment and hours from the previous week Sunday-Saturday are recorded in the Cyber-Seniors portal by end of day on Mondays (or if Monday is a holiday, the next business day). All school coordinators are aware of this timing.
Please note that you must be matched in uSked as a mentor on a webinar in order to get volunteer hours for those webinars. You will not be awarded volunteer hours for observing a webinar.
Go to your Cyber-Seniors portal Dashboard for your Volunteer Hours Report. To generate it, click on the report icon, enter the time period you want, then click Generate Report. You can then download it from the link that appears.
*NOTE that our Volunteer Hours report is specifically designed to provide proof of your volunteer hours and includes a signature. If your school asks you to complete a form for your volunteer hours (including a signature), please complete the form from your school and submit both that form and the Volunteer Hours report from the Cyber-Seniors portal.
If you require more services/volunteer hours and are having a hard time getting enough hours in, please email us at scheduling@cyberseniors.org. We are always looking for more help, whether for our webinar or phone support services, or other tasks that Cyber-Seniors is doing.
REFERENCE LETTERS:
Given the limited personal contact that we have with volunteers, we are not prepared to make statements about a particular volunteer’s skills and work record. Thus, we developed the Volunteer Hours report that is designed to provide information about Cyber-Seniors and what volunteers do in the course of their assignments. However, we’re happy to verify a claim of volunteer hours. Please send any claim to be verified to info@cyberseniors.org.
