NAMI 360 - NAMI California Fact Sheet - September 2014

Hello all.  I created a fact sheet for reference on the data system NAMI National initiated called  NAMI 360.  NAMI National also has information about 360 on the www.nami.org/eduhelpdesk  as well as a July 2014 recorded call about it.  I found it necessary to create this description below to share with all affiliate education coordinators. 


NAMI 360 – Finding and Entering Education Leaders in the System.

We will soon be needing all NAMI education coordinators to have education access to NAMI 360.  This will enable you to add classes online, and also add all your teachers so they can access the intranet (soon to be called extranet) and also be able to download information from the www.nami.org/eduhelpdesk  website. 
·       Even if your teachers /facilitators now have access to the intranet, when NAMI switches completely to the new system, they will no longer have this access unless they’ve been added to the 360 network. 

Education Coordinators – Registration for Education Access Steps:

1.     First and last name:
2.     Address:
3.      Phone number:
5.     Email address:
6.     NAMI State: (California)
7.     NAMI affiliate you are a member of:
8.     nami.org username:
9.     Password:

This information is then sent to NAMI National authorizing you for education access.    Please send this data as soon as possible.  Also know that I do not keep a record of  the usernames and passwords.  It is sent straight to NAMI National and then deleted from my email. 

Since NAMI California has hundreds of F2F teachers (also known as education leaders when entering data on 360) each affiliate NAMI education coordinator enters their own affiliate’s teachers and support group facilitators, etc.

Entering Teachers/Facilitators into NAMI 360/Modifying Their Profile

1.     Log into NAMI.org
2.     At the base of your home page click on link that says NAMI State Organization and NAMI Affiliate Management  
3.     To open this link you must be entered into NAMI 360 - see above directions.
Clicking on this link will bring you to the start page

If you are not sure whether the volunteer is in the system then:
4.     Click on search-query link - on left.  
5.     Enter in the person’s name, city and state. 
6.     Click the search box to the far right of the page
7.     Scroll down the following page – if they are in the system their information will appear.
8.     Click on their ID # - in blue, on the left.
9.     This brings you to the person’s profile page.  Scroll down to the bottom field.  It is entitled NAMI Education Leaders.   To the right click on the link that says Add Education Leader
10.  Follow instructions for entering your teacher or support group facilitator.  If your person serves in more than one capacity, you will need to enter him/her for each role.  i.e. if he/she is a Family to Family and Basics teacher, you will need to repeat that step twice. 

If the teacher/facilitator is already in the system:

1.     At the start page – click on link on the right hand side of the page that says Education Leader.   On the next page you will see volunteer names by category. 
2.     At the top of that page click on Add Education Leader
3.     Follow instructions for entering your teacher or support group facilitator.  If your person serves in more than one capacity, you will need to enter him/her for each role.  i.e. if he/she is a Family to Family and Basics teacher, you will need to repeat that step twice. 

Resources:
See www.nami.org/eduhelpdesk  and listen to a recorded call dated July 2014. 
(There is also a webinar from February 2014 listed, but no audio is available for it.)

There is also a 360 Help Icon on every page.

If you/your affiliate are in a situation that will make it difficult for you to do this, please let me know.   Thanks again!
