== Process ==
=== Sources ===
Gather your list of changes that need to be made to the membership database:
* review any e-mails you may have received about updates
* Review the call-out list in the membership binder for changes
* Review the personnel records in the membership binder
* Review decisions of the board about membership statuses and newly approved members
** Any changes (e.g. an applicant becoming an associate member) should be ''added'', not deleting the old membership information.  This is a requirement of the Alberta Society Act.
* Collect the sign-in sheets from PCSAR incidents and events
** These may be passed directly to the Membership Coordinator/Administrator by the event organizer / Search Manager
** Some sheets may be left in the Membership Binder
** Rope Rescue and Swiftwater Rescue trainings are recorded in a binder marked "Joint Rope Rescue" on the ''ground'' floor of the Fire Hall in a bookshelf opposite the door to the washroom.
** Some committees record their attendance in the meeting records:
*** [[Preplan/Committee#Meetings|Preplan]]
*** [[Technology Committee#Meetings|Technology]]
=== Edit existing records ===
Edit the membership records on the secure part of the wiki.
* [[:Category:MemRecord|existing membership records]]
* See [[Membership Database/Format|formatting instructions]] for the kinds of changes to make.

=== New Members and Applicants ===
* new members or applicants should be added in a similar fashion, namely
** If information on the new member is received by e-mail, print it.
** Place the original form or the printed e-mail in the membership binder.  Keep it there until the personnel record is printed to replace it.  That way if there is a delay in printing, the member can continue to update this draft document. 
** On [[Special:MyPage|your personal page]], or in a [[Sandbox]] add the line:
**: <code><nowiki>* {{member|John Doe}}</nowiki></code>
**: using the person's name instead of <code>John Doe</code>.
** Follow the link to the new member's page.  You should be in the edit box, with a blank template ready to be filled in.
** Fill in the information and save the page.

=== Activities ===
Add any newly recorded activities to the [[Activities]] page.
=== Notification ===
