Some discussions just don't fit into a well defined box. Use this forum to discuss general topics and issues revolving around the Church and the technology offerings we use and share.

Ward TS privileges

Post by Mikerowaved »

Does anyone know if the Ward Technology Specialist calling comes with any access to the tools created for the [Stake] Technology Specialists, even on a read-only basis? For example, Technology Manager or Meetinghouse Webcast.

I'm doubtful, but let's see what the community discovers.
Have you searched the Help Center? Try doing a Google search and adding "site:churchofjesuschrist.org/help" to the search criteria.

Based on the list of included responsibilities in the Handbook, 33.10, I doubt it:

- Teach members how to access and use Church media, apps, and other technology tools, including FamilySearch.
- Support leaders and teachers who use technology tools to fulfill their callings.
- Manage streaming of meetings and classes for those who cannot attend (see 29.7).

It's a calling that could be extended to a tech-savvy 14-year-old. The last item would require access to the ward's Zoom account but I have to think that stake-level resources like Webcast are going to be reserved for the STS.
