This glossary was started as a project of the Residents’ Council Communications and Website Committees to support residents who had questions about the IT Update Presentation given by Hans Keller in January 2023.
See Hans Keller’s IT Update by logging on to My Erickson and selecting Community Videos -> Admin Update or Community Videos – Residents’ Council and looking in the Playlist on the right side for the presentation.
