Update the agenda and meet

Open the new file in Word, add agenda items, and check carried-forward actions. Save it in your chapter's meeting folder under the meeting date and name.

During the meeting:

• Record attendance and have the chair confirm quorum.
• Let attendees know about recording and transcription, and follow your chapter's process.
• Record the meeting. The minutes are drafted from the transcript, so without a recording there is nothing to draft from.

Afterwards, save the transcript beside the meeting file.
