U-MAS 

Membership Management System

U-MAS is a legacy U3A Member Administration System that has been in use since 2007. Support for U-MAS is only guaranteed until June 2027, so U3A is transitioning to Member Wizard (see details on this page), which offers greater functionality.

Network Data System (NDS)

U3As are required to report to the Network once a year as part of the annual membership process.

The Network Data System is where U3As update their contact information, including details of committee members and office bearers.

For guidance on using the NDS, refer to the NDS User Guide. Contact the U3A Network Office on (03) 9670 3659 or email info@u3avictoria.org.au if you require technical assistance.

Website Templates

A website template has been developed for the use of U3As. The benefits of using the Website Template Package are:

  • Strengthened communication and marketing presence among the smaller U3As in Victoria, leading to increased membership and public visibility
  • U3As spend less time on website design and creation, and more on class and activity management
  • Minimal cost for those U3As with the least amount of reserve funds
  • Support by U3A volunteers for those U3As with website challenges
  • Skills transfer among Member U3As – the essence of the U3A movement

User Guide

The Website Template User Guide provides manuals on managing your website using the U3A website template in WordPress.
