  1. Survey on training wishes for the associations

AYY is again organising association training on 8.12. at Design Factory and planning of the training is now beginning. An English session will be arranged separately according to demand. Now we’re hoping that as many associations as possible will reply to the survey regarding the training, which we’ll use to plan the association training of December and possible separate training sessions. There is time to reply to the survey until 2.10. and there’ll be a prize draw for the respondents for a free booking of the premises at either the Otaniemi Tietosauna or the Vaasankatu sauna and cabinet, to be used by 31.5.2017. Note that reservations after Jan 1st 2017 can be made after advance bookings, but you can also use the free reservation in the advance bookin period. More information about advance booking later on.

  1. The equality survey of AYY and Aalto University

Have you experienced inappropriate behaviour at student dos? Have you noticed discrimination in teaching situations? In the student associations, does everyone have the same rights? AYY and Aalto University are trying to find answers to these questions and others with an equality survey, the results of which will be utilised in coming projects to further equality.

As a prize, after responding one 100-euro gift card for the Stockmann department store will be drawn amongst those who have submitted their contact details, as well as a number of smaller prizes. The contact details are stored separately and cannot be connected to the replies to the equality survey.

You can get to the survey form from the link below:

  1. Earn EUR 800 for your association: a temp job at the Sillis for the Traditional Teekkari Party!

We offer associations the possibility to earn money at the Sillis for the Traditional Teekkari Dinner Party.
We need a group of 15 workers at the Sillis organised on 12 November, from approx. 08-20. The job includes everything from the morning arrangements and cooking to cleaning up. The job will pay the association a fee of EUR 800.
If your association can’t get the required number of workers together, the job can be shared between two associations. It would be best, however, if one group could take care of the whole thing.

Registrations and inquiries can be sent to Yours Truly.

Association newsletter for the week 35/2016

Association Newsletter, Associations, Community, Grants for Associations, Rental of facilities, Training and Courses Leave a comment

This is AYY’s association newsletter for the week 35/2016.

Now there is a great opportunity to earn some money for your association! Get a group together or join forces with other associations at the Sillis for the Traditional Teekkari Dinner Party. The fee is EUR 800. Read more in section 2.

We have received feedback about the noise caused by the use of Gorsu from the residents at Jämeräntaival 5 and its surroundings. It is important to be considerate when using the facilities, so please remember to abide with the usage rules. Please remind your friends to remember the nearby residents in addition to having fun. If disturbances still continue, AYY will change the time of use for the facilities to end at 23:00 instead of the current 03:00. Read more in section 1.

Upcoming events and important dates for associations and actives

28.8.: Associations’ registration for Aalto Afterparties and freshmen orientation event Otasuunnistus will close (see sections 2 and 3)
6.9.: Aalto Party (associations’ registration has closed): http://avajaiset.ayy.fi/
6.9.: Aalto Afterparty
7.9.-8.9.: Otasuunnistus orientation event
30.9.: TTER application round closes (see x)

Content of the newsletter

  2. Join the Aalto Afterparty on September 6!
  3. Arrange a checkpoint at Otasuunnistus 7-8 Sept!
  4. The third application round of TTE-Fund in 2016 is open until Sep 30 11:59 pm.
  5. Nominate new honorary members for the Guild of the Round Tower

1. To be noted in using Gorsu

After the summer, AYY has received feedback about the noise problem that the use of Gorsu has caused for residents of JMT 5. The walls and roof of the facilities do not block all the noise coming from the facilities, which significantly influences the comfort of living of the residents nearby.

For this reason, AYY reminds all the users of these facilities about the general usage rules for the facilities, in particular section stating that “Facilities are used in accordance with the law, regulations and good manners”. In addition, the facilities are in use until 03:00, but since the premises are in connection with a residential property, special attention must be paid to Section 4 in the Rules and Regulations of the Teekkari Village: “On weekdays between 11pm–7am and on weekends and public holidays between 12midnight–9am, singing, playing, loud use of a television, radio or stereo equipment and such other noise is prohibited, excluding a correctly performed teekkari hymn.”

Those who do not abide with these rules will be penalised according to the sanctions listed in the Usage rules for the Student Union’s rental facilities.

If disturbances continue, AYY will change the time of use for the facilities to end at 23:00.

 

2. Earn EUR 800 for your association: a temp job at the Sillis for the Traditional Teekkari Party!

3. Join the Aalto Afterparty on September 6!

Would your association like to be part of the year’s first, biggest and most amazing event? Join the Aalto Afterparty!

The traditional Aalto Afterparty will be held on the Tuesday of orientation week, and as usual, we’ll have brilliant performers, fabulous surroundings and a great vibe! We also want to offer associations an opportunity to get exposure at the event and to promote their activities to new students in a relaxed fashion. Many associations are probably already involved in other events during orientation week, such as the Aalto Party or Otasuunnistus, but at these events, students may easily get confused with so much on offer. The Aalto Afterparty would give you a chance to stand out from the crowd and make a memorable impression of your association! To participate, all you need is an inspiring, spirited activity that reflects your association, plus the people and equipment needed for organizing it.

You can inform us of your willingness to participate by sending e-mail to afterparty ät list.ayy.fi by Sunday, August 28.

We welcome you to make the Aalto Afterparty even faster and more stunning. 😉

For more information about the event, see https://www.facebook.com/events/533125386886320/.

With late summer greetings,
The Aalto Afterparty Committee

Orientation will be here soon and so will the Otasuunnistus. I welcome your organisation to participate in Otasuunnistus on both Wednesday September 7th and Thursday September 8th. At your checkpoint you shall give the freshmen small tasks and reward them with points.  The checkpoints are open from 5PM to 10PM, and the afterparty starts in Smökki at 9:30PM. You can register your checkpoint until the 28th of August with this form:

Mark down the date! AYY’s association training will be held this year on December 8. A survey about the associations’ wishes for training shall be conducted during September.

Content of the newsletter

  1. Registered associations’ notices of change for the Patent and Registration Office (PRH) and changes in the Associations Act on July 1, 2016

The Associations Act was changed on July 1, 2016 to allow the Patent and Registration Office (PRH) to purge defunct associations from its register. This removal process involves about 40,000 registered associations that have not filed a report with the associations register after 1995 and whose operation is not expected to continue. An association may avoid the removal process if it files a notice of its continuing operation to PRH by January 12, 2017.

The dates of the latest reports filed to PRH by associations in AYY’s associations register were checked from PRH’s public associations database in June.  Associations in AYY’s register that had filed their last report before 1996 have been contacted separately. However, if you know that your association has not filed a report with PRH about the latest changes in rules or signatory rights, you should take care of this as soon as possible. If you are unsure of the date of the latest report, you can check it from PRH’s database at http://yhdistysrekisteri.prh.fi/etusivu.htx. In accordance with the Associations Act, registered associations have a responsibility to file a notice with PRH about changes in rules and signatory rights. Rule changes will become effective when they are entered into the register.

For more information about the legal change and a list of the associations involved in the removal process: https://www.prh.fi/fi/asiakastiedotteet/2016/P_9238.html

27.6.2016

AYY is acting as a provider of .fi domain names for the associations in the association register of the Student Union from 5.9.

Associations, IT Services Leave a comment

From 5.9.2016, .fi domain names and the services associated with them can only be obtained through domain name providers. AYY is acting from the date in question as a domain name provider for registered associations in AYY’s association register.

After this, associations can carry out the following services through AYY:
– registration of a .fi domain name for the use of the association
– renewing the validity of the domain name of the association
– transferring the domain name of the association to another user
– changing the provider of the association’s domain name
– cancelling the domain name of the association

If your association already has a .fi domain name, you will already have received mail about the reform from the Finnish Communications Regulatory Authority. From 5.9. onwards, you will need a domain name provider in order to be able to update the details of the domain name or to renew its period of validity.
In that case, it is advisable to connect the address to the administration of the provider well before September. You can connect the domain name to the administration of AYY by supplying the details of the domain name and the authorisation key to AYY at https://lomake.ayy.fi/it/siirto/?lang=en. You can get further information at tietotekniikka@ayy.fi

More detailed information about applying for a new domain name will be sent before September.

Association newsletter 23/2016

Associations Leave a comment

This is AYY’s association newsletter for the week 23/2016.

Hasn’t your association made an association notice yet? The last moments to make a notice are at hand. The notice must be made by 11.59 pm on 8.6. in the TAHLO system: https://tahlo.ayy.fi/. After this, the association register will be cleaned up of the associations who have not made a notice for two years! Contact the organisation specialist (jarjestöasiat@ayy.fi) if there are problems with the notice.

Save the date! The association training of AYY will be held this year on 8.12.

The association bulletin is taking a summer holiday. The association bulletin is next out on Friday, 19.8.

 

Content of the newsletter

  1. Missing association notices
  2. The possibility to apply for the club premises of OtaHoas
  3. Save he date: AYY’s association training 8th of Dec
  1. Missing association notices

Associations that have not yet submitted their association notice for 2016 must do so by 11:59 PM on June 8 at https://tahlo.ayy.fi. Applications for operating grants can no longer be submitted. If the notice has not been submitted by the deadline for the second consecutive year, the association may be removed entirely from the student union’s associations register.

Filling out the association notice you will need:

* Rules in effect
* The annual report for 2015
* The strategy for 2016
* A list of the officers

Fill out the following tabs: Basic Information (also The Association Board at the bottom of the page), the Offices and Attachments. You do not need to care about the Operating Grant tab.

You can log in by using the association’s user name and password. These are the same as during the last round of operating grant applications. If you have forgotten the username or have any problems logging in, please contact the organisational sector (jarjestoasiat at ayy.fi). If an association does not already have a username and password, these can be created during the first log in. Every association creates the username and password by themselves, unless they have been entered in the system in advance. When you are creating a new username, it is preferred to use the official abbreviation of the association or the name in use. The password needs to be at least 8 characters and needs to include special characters and numbers. Store the password somewhere safe: you will need it again next year.

Take care when filling out the information. The basic information from last year is copied automatically, so you do not need to fill out every box. You can update the form until it closes at 23.59 on March 31st, so you do not need to do everything at once. Remember to save your changes! Please also note, that the form has some fields that the association cannot fill in by themselves (for example the class within the Register of Associations that the association belongs to). These fields will be filled in by the organisational sector.

 

  1. The possibility to apply for the club premises of OtaHoas

Club premises have become available to OtaHoas (the joint resident committee of the student accommodation sites of Otaniemi owned by Hoas) in the properties of Jämeräntaipale, Servin Maijan tie and Servinkuja as well. The associations of Otaniemi, the clubs formed by the residents and other groups are being offered the opportunity to manage these premises.

The sizes of the premises on offer vary from about 25 to 80 square metres. Almost all the premises have a toilet either in the premises or near them. No rent is charged for the premises. The premises cannot be used during the quiet period because there are residential apartments around them. OtaHoas can provide support with the expenses relating to the adoption of club premises.

The purpose of use of the premises is not restricted, but it must be one that promotes the comfort of residents. The administrators have a duty to allow the residents of Otaniemi use the premises free of charge provided that they can use the premises themselves for their own requirements.

OtaHoas will arrange viewings of the premises from Monday, 20.6., when it will be possible to get acquainted with the premises. Applications for the usage plan of the club premises must be sent by Sunday, 3.7.

Further information, registering for a viewing and application instructions are on the web pages of OtaHoas: http://otahoas.ayy.fi/kerhohuoneet/tila-anti-2016/

Lisätietoa, ilmoittautuminen läpikatsantaan ja hakemusohjeet ovat OtaHoasin verkkosivuilla: http://otahoas.ayy.fi/kerhohuoneet/tila-anti-2016/
