Web Site to Aid Technology Specialists Preparing for Broadcasts

October 3, 2007 — News from the Church

Stake technology specialists preparing for this weekend’s general conference can access information online for supplemental help in fulfilling their callings. A Web site launched in June provides troubleshooting solutions for a number of tasks these members are called to perform.

“We wanted to make sure that these specialists knew there were resources available to them,” said Bill Bush, program manager for the Information and Communications Systems Department of the Church.

A collection of hundreds of articles concerning common assignments are available, covering a range of topics such as receiving satellite transmissions, computer records, and the missionary online recommendation system. PDF versions of letters and broadcast information are accessible from the site, as well as a summary of the roles and responsibilities the technology specialist fulfills.

Any feedback technology specialists provide on the site is appreciated, Bush said, “We’d like to know what issues are on people’s minds.”

The site is currently available in English and will be translated into Spanish over the next few months. German, Japanese, Portuguese, and Russian translations will also be made available in the future.
