NEW AICA now live – join Infexion Connexion

[Wishart, Michael]

Dear members of the Infection Prevention and Control Community,

When the AICAlist went offline earlier this year there was widespread
disappointment however, the AICA executive used this ‘downtime’ to
review this key area of member communication and on behalf of the AICA
Executive I am very pleased to present you with an early Christmas gift,
the new look, new name AICAlist. After extensive review and testing of
the new list server functions the AICA list is now ready to use and goes
live today. We invite you to all rejoin the new list to stay in touch
and connected using:

Infexion_Connexion

Some features of the new AICAlist include:

* Full web interface:

– subscription via email web interface

– ability to send messages, read messages, view list archive,
search list archive, all for web

* Full email control: send commands, review subscription options

* Fully moderated discussion list where the moderator can edit
posts before sending them to list

* Digest mode with options for how often to receive digest

Infexion_Connexion now has the ability to easily send announcements to
all members who have a registered email address. This has been provided
to AICA previously through the State/ and Territory membership
databases.

All the subscription information is also available via the AICA website
but please use the instructions below to get started.

On behalf of the AICA Executive I would like to extend sincere thanks to
Michael Wishart (ICPAQ President and List moderator) who has remained
committed to seeing this project through despite some significant
hurdles.

There are two ways to subscribe to AICA Infexion Connexion (AICAlist)

1) send an email to listserv@aicalist.org.au with the subject Subscribe
and in the body of the message ‘subscribe aicalist’ (without the
quotes). This is the quickest and easiest method for users, but doesn’t
give you access to the web interface and archives. You can always
register with the web interface after subscribing by email, though.

OR

2) visit http://www.aicalist.org.au/archives and register your email address
on the website by clicking on the ‘get a new LISTSERV password’ link in
the text. You need to confirm the request in an email (click on the
link), then log in to the website with your new details. Once you are
logged in click on AICALIST under List Name and them choose Join or
Leave AICALIST. Here you can choose subscription options, then at the
bottom of the page choose the Join button. Once subscribed to AICALIST
you can set your own preferences for the website using the Preferences
button next to Log Out.

If you have any problems with the subscription process you can send an

Seasons Greetings
On a personal note I am ‘defecting’ from Victoria to take a position in
the Torres Strait based on Thursday Island. My family and I will be
relocating to the far north of Queensland in January. I will continue in
my role as AICA President and can still be contacted via our secretariat
on email: admin@aica.org.au My new work address from 1/2/10 will be
Claire_Boardman@health.qld.gov.au

Best wishes to all for the Festive Season.

Regards,

Claire
