The Group Registration approval process empowers new administrators to review and approve requests for new groups, while the Group Re-Registration approval process facilitates the review and approval of requests to reactivate existing groups.

Whether an end-user is setting up a New Group Registration or Re-Registering a group, both processes go through three steps:

  • Step 1 - Dynamic Group Information: Users submits information about their group that dynamically updates their group settings and group page (e.g. Mission, Constitution, Officers, etc.)
