Vancouver User Group
May 07, 2015
We've had a couple of meetings and I'm the keeper of the emails and lists, but would rather use a collaborative space. If you want to be part of our group, you can reply to this thread (or email me directly if you want: holly at sparkandco dot ca).
A group of us met this week and we shared some resources that I'd like to put up here.
- Creative Market - https://creativemarket.com/ they have weekly freebies and offer good bundles
- Mighty Deals - http://www.mightydeals.com/ daily deals on design stuff
- eLearning Art - http://www.elearningart.com/ selection of characters beyond the built-in (elearning brothers too http://elearningbrothers.com/) Lots more shared on the ELH site
- Printing a page - https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/to-print-a-slide-of-the-published-output-of-storyline
- Changing the report - http://www.articulate.com/support/quizmaker-09/how-to-create-certificates-by-customizing-the-reporthtml-file
I've proposed that we meet again the week of July 20th.

You can click on a name and if they are open to being contacted, just click the "contact me" option. You are welcome to email me: holly at sparkandco dot ca.
For our group, we try to keep communication in this thread, so that it's open. I do have emails of folks who are interested, but would rather you subscribe to the thread to keep updated, mostly so I don't miss people or be the bottleneck in communication.
No registration required, just come along to the meeting.
We look forward to meeting you.
Holly
Great plan Pat - let's put our heads together for that.
Okay, I'm in for the June 6 Robson Square event. Looking forward to meeting everyone.
Hi Everyone,
On Monday June 6th, we'll be meeting in Room C.235 at Robson Square. If you haven't been here before, note that all "C" labels designate the classroom spaces on the bottom level (the "dungeon") of the Square.
When you come in through the main doors you'll be on the Plaza level. Go one level down using the big set of concrete stairs and head to your left. Room C.235 is down the hallway that is on the left-most (east side) of the building.
If you are parking in the parkade, use the elevator or stairs to go up one level (to "C") and head left out of either the stairwell or the elevator.
If you get lost, feel free to text or call my cell: 604-220-0409. Remember you are welcome to bring in drinks/snacks, as there are limited options in the building.

June 6th works for me +1. Looking forward to it!
Hi all, it was such a pleasure meeting everyone to share conversation and ideas with at the last get together in June. I have inadvertently misplaced the contact info some of you shared with me when we concluded the meeting (read into this disorganized reorganization of home office after moving). I'm sure I have the information in a very very safe place and will confirm that with you as soon as I find it.
In the interim, my contact info is listed below should you have any interest or reason in wanting to connect. :-) I'll be talking to Holly at some point over the next week and while doing so will broach the idea of another gathering. It will be interesting to hear what people got up to over the summer and see what we can do and how we can support each other professionally moving forward.

Hi Everyone,
The Articulate Roadshow is just around the corner. It will be my first time attending this event and I'm getting excited about it! Does anybody want to get together for dinner and/or drinks after the final day (October 13th)? I thought it might be nice to catch up with what what we are doing professionally, share our thoughts about the workshop and just chat over a glass of wine :)
If interested, let me know and I'll make reservations. I'm thinking we could meet around 5:00 pm somewhere close to the B.C.I.T. campus. Rogue Kitchen on Water Street is a good option (large space, close to skytrain). Of course, I'm open to suggestions if anyone has some. Talk to you all soon.
Deborah
Great idea Deborah. I'm not sure I can stay for long on the final day, as I'll have to head for a ferry, but strongly encourage others to join in (even if you don't attend the roadshow).
Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Roadshow!
Holly
Holly,
We could change the date to Wednesday the 12th, if that makes it easier for you to attend. I personally don't have a preference, either day works for me. What about others out there?
Hi Deborah,
I'm not attending the Roadshow this year, but would love to meet up. I think Rogue is a great venue and the 12th works for me.
Hi Kima,
I realize I kind of dropped the ball on this, but wanted to let you know that the dinner is still a go tonight in case you are interested in joining us. We are planning to meet around 5:00. My number is 604-679-8540. Shoot me a text if you want to check in later. I'm pretty sure we decided on Rogue kitchen.
Hi Deborah,
Yea, I kind of figured it wasn't happening. Have something scheduled for tonight.
Maybe next time.
Have fun...Kima
Hi all - Lynn and I conspired at the Roadshow and we've set a date/time/place for our next session:
Save the date and we'll update the thread with more info as we have it!
Sounds good. Looking forward to the user group meeting!
Hi,
I couldn't get there till 5:15.
Thanks for organizing this. I will be there but it will be closer to 4:15/4:30. See you then!
I'll be there. Thanks for organizing!
Might be a bit late but hope to attend as well! Thanks for putting this together!
Hi there,
I've not attended one of these sessions before (I didn't even know they existed, so happy I found this), but would love to attend if possible. Is there anything that I need to do to register?
Thanks a million!
Gemma

Hi everyone,
We've confirmed the room for our Nov 9th meet up here at Robson Square. We have room C235 (same one as last time for those that were here; for those that are new, scroll up to my previous posting for directions). We will run the session from 4:30pm to 6:30pm.
This is going to be a hands-on session, so bring your laptop with you. We'll be exploring the world of the E-learning Heroes challenges (https://community.articulate.com/hubs/e-learning-challenges).
More info to come...
Lynn
Pencil me in - looking forward to finally making it out to a meet up!
Hi there,
I would like to join this session if possible with a work colleague - does he have to register here also, or do we just turn up next week?
Thanks
Gemma
Hi,
As I'll be arriving quite late (5:30ish), I'll likely leave my laptop at home (I'll be hoofing it.) I can still contribute, but essentially, just looking to make an appearance within the community.
Hi all, I haven't met you guys yet but I am really excited to join the group this Wednesday. Is there a contact phone # I can call in case I don't find the room?
