  1. The first application round of TTE-Fund in 2017: DL 22nd of Jan at 23:59!

The first application round of TTE-Fund in 2017 is open! The fund may grant financial aid for all AYY members and the association within it. TTE-Fund supports visible activities that reach for the stars and make other people excited.

You can apply for grants from TTE-Fund in two ways: through the application rounds arranged approximately three times a year and through the continuous application period which is open during the academic terms. During the continuous application period, you can apply for the grants with the maximum of 2000€, whereas the amount of project grants during the actual application rounds is not limited.

The first application round of 2017 will end on Sunday, 22 January 2017, at 11.59pm. Instructions for the application and its attachments are available on the website of the fund at http://tter.ayy.fi/. The grant can be applied for with an online form which is available at: https://lomake.ayy.fi/tter/hakulomake/

Deadlines for the application rounds of spring 2017 and other additional information is available on TTE-Fund’s website at http://tter.ayy.fi/. Also check out the facebook site at www.facebook.com/tterahasto.

 

  1. The main administrator notifications of Otax must be done by 29.3

Concerning associations which have webpages or IDs at AYY’s web hotel service Otax.

The main administrator notifications of Otax must be done by 29.3. In the case of those accounts from which notifications have not been made, the IDs will be locked on 1.4. and the site will be closed down.

At the same time, the notifier must check the applications that are running, users who have access to the ID etc. You can find more detailed instructions on the notification form. Set aside enough time to make the notification and check the site.

You can make a notification at https://lomake.ayy.fi/it/yllapitajailmoitus/.

More information Otax and other IT services offered by AYY to associationns can be found at https://otax.fi/.

 

  1. AYY’s lost property practices have changed

Up till now, it has been possible to bring objects from clothes and bags to items of value to AYY, found in the one-off rental premises of AYY or the campus area. Due to a lack of resources, the lost property service has discontinued at the end of 2016 and lost items will not be accepted at the office of AYY.

This means that passing on clothes or bags found in the premises of AYY or the campus to lost property offices or their owners is at the responsibility of the event organisers. It will only be possible to bring phones, wallets, keys and spectacles to the service point of AYY. Travel cards found are to be returned to the service points of HSL or given to bus drivers, who will pass them on to HSL.

 

  1. Presentations from AYY’s association training online

Most of the presentations from the Finnish association training can now be found on AYY’s website at /yhdistykset/palvelut/koulutus-ja-kurssit/yhdistyskoulutus/.

Some of the presentations are still missing, but all of them will be uploaded on the website as soon as possible.
