How do I approve a participant’s section?

When a participant has had their Programme Planner approved and has met the minimum section requirements, they can submit a section for approval by choosing a Leader.

If you are their designated Leader, you will receive a message that the section can be directly approved.

You will see 'Directly Approve: Yes' in the communications section on the top right of the home screen if you have any outstanding sections to be approved.

1. Click on 'Directly Approve: Yes' to see all sections awaiting approval.
2. Click on the yellow exclamation to open up a section for approval. 
3. Check the section requirements have been met according to your Licensed Organisation standards.
