VMS System for recording hours:
You may visit THIS PORTAL PAGE as the TMN portal to the VMS system to log in, and details and help documentation is on this Help Desk page which is also found there.
You should use the Portal page link above to sign in to the VMS system, and NOT bookmark the VMS log in link directly as that link may change when system upgrades are done. For convenience, you should bookmark that “Portal Page” in your browser for ease of future use. Any questions, call Don to help set this up. Keep your profile information up to date, as that is used by TPWD to conduct annual background checks on all active members. Also, see our Vol. Hours Reporting web page for details on hours recording, travel time, etc.
