Managing Committee Participants
The function of committee participants is determined by their assigned role within that committee, and is not dictated by the role they play within the greater organization. BoardSpot makes committee roles clear and straightforward.
Both Organizational Admins and Committee Admins can add or remove Administrators, Guests, and participants from a committee. Contact your organization's administrator(s) for assistance with these tasks.
Log in as an admin user for the organization.
Navigate to the Committee home page, scroll to the correct committee, click Edit and choose Members.
Scroll to the correct section that will be this person's roie in the committee (either Member, Guest, or Staff) and choose the drop down list Select person , selecting the name of the person to add. Note: Within a committee, Members count towards quorum, and can vote. But within a committee, Staff and Guests do not count towards quorum, and do not vote by default (though this can be changed when a vote is created).
Committee participants can be designated as member, staff, or guest roles and this is independent of the role they play within the greater organization. Committee participants can be assigned titles such as chair, secretary, etc.. and these titles do not correlate to administrative privileges within BoardSpot.
On the committee page select Edit Settings.
Scroll down to Access & Permissions section.
Too add an admin click the Add Another button and choose the correct name. To remove an admin select the `Remove`option next to their name.

Each committee can have committee-specific admins assigned. Committee admins are limited to administrating only the committee to which they are assigned that admin role. Committee admins have privileges to create and manage meetings, agendas, and votes, as well as adding documents, editing members, taking attendance, and emailing participants of that committee. Both organizational admins and committee admins can add or remove administrators from the committee.
Within the people home page, choose the guest profile to update and select Edit in the ellipses menu.
