First-day Items

Introduction

The team uses discord to communicate!

  •  https://www.uwarg.com/join and introduce yourself in #introductions a few days ahead of your start date
  •  Coordinate with your manager to schedule an onboarding meeting for your first day

Safety Training

Please complete the following courses before starting any projects:

  •  SO1001 Employee Safety Orientation
  •  SO1081 Workplace Violence Awareness
  •  WHMIS 2015
  •  SO1010 Laboratory Safety
  •  Engineering Machine Shop Training

You can access these courses by going to Learn, selecting “Self Registration,” and enrolling in these courses.

Some of these you may have already completed for other university courses and are required by the university to keep you safe in our bay!

Joining Management Softwares

We use Asana to manage tasks and timelines and Confluence to handle documentation. You should use your uwaterloo.ca email. If you do not have access to these services, ask your manager to provide you with an invite.

Meeting Cadence

You will have a 1:1 with your manager once daily. The time will be coordinated in our own google calendar.

Your subteam, Electrical, meets on a weekly basis (meeting times are scheduled at the start of the term). You’ll also be expected to attend general meetings, and other relevant meetings as needed. Our meeting schedule can be found in our google calendar in #info .

AEAC sync and leads meeting are optional meetings where we discuss system integration and admin for the team respectively. Flight tests occur sporadically, generally on weekends. You are welcome to join these, but are not required to.
