Education Improvement Program Weekly Newsletter,

June 24, 2021 - July 1, 2021

Prepared by: markell@eip on 06/24/2021

While we’re in the process of completely updating ourselves as a “company”

we’re considering updating our COVID-19 safety requirements by completely
removing all restrictions. We believe that with the amount of vaccinations and
decrease in COVID cases we’re able to do so safely. However, we haven’t
come to a decision yet, therefore, our current safety requirements are still in
place.

AUDIO ANNOUNCEMENTS - LAST WEEK TO HEAR OUR

ANNOUNCEMENTS INSTEAD OF READING THEM!

Announcements will be available by calling our support number for ONE

MORE WEEK. The phone number can be found at eipedu.net/help. They’ll also
remain in text here.

*NEW* Enrollments are over for the academic year. We’re now gearing towards
the next academic year. More information on Borrow-It distributions and
everything we’re doing to prepare or “#geartowards” is @
eipedu.net/geartowards
*NEW* EIP Weekly Newsletter is coming to an end. The last production date is
undecided as of now but since Markell is resigning the newsletter will be
discontinued and updates will only be published to social media.

*NEW* Our audio announcements will be discontinued as of July 2, 2021.

*NEW* We’re bringing “AFK mode” to EIP’s online services. Instead of asking
to leave your computer just activate AFK mode. Your class and tutor will be
notified and your camera grid will disappear as if you’ve left the class. Your mic
will also be muted, automatically, in case you forget. You’re limited to 2 a day
and 8 a week, any after will be submitted for account moderation. Your
account can be disabled and not reactivated without refund if our moderation
process approves it.

Beginning June 24, Visitors are welcome back into the office.

In our “Annual Meeting for Community Members” we discussed the future of

EIPedu. New services plans and tiers were suggested. We’re opening 20 more
jobs next academic year and we’re bringing back an old-time EIP-er. Also
announced was Markell’s resignation. Markell’s complete resignation letter can
be viewed on Twitter and Facebook.

Summer Pay, it’s a thing! All FT-Perm team members will receive “Summer Pay”
