As an administrator, you're responsible for managing your organisation's opportunity and community — both offline and online.
Being an administrator puts you in a position to manage and edit your organisation's opportunities. Every time you post an opportunity, community members receive notification. They can opt to join or not. If they do, it's your responsibility to ensure the right people join the opportunity. You can vet your interested subscribers by interview.
You're responsible for communicating with your community. Make sure they're updated.
If you feel overwhelmed by the number of opportunities and subscribers under your organisation, you can use tags to organize the subscribers.
It's important to know how to cancel opportunities when there's a need to do so.
This guide will teach you how to manage your organisation's opportunity and participants.
