Step 1: Log in to the HBA website and go to the community
Step 2: Visit your regional member community and click on "manage opportunities volunteer" under volunteer settings (you will be required to log in if you are not already):
Step 3: From the landing page with a list of all opportunities, find the opportunity for which you received an email and click on the link next to “awaiting approval”:
Step 4: Find the applicant that just applied (if there are multiple for that opportunity) and click “view application”:
Step 5: From the window that pops up with the application, select all relevant text, right-click to "print," and save as PDF. Alternatively, you can copy and paste the application fields directly into the body of an email
Step 6: Send the application to the appropriate individual(s) (for example, this is a marketing committee role, and the chapter marketing DAL appoints their committee members.)
Step 7: Mark the application approved (or rejected) based on the response from the approving parties. Approval in the system is what provides access to:
- Communities associated with the role
- Reports and functions via their HBA profile
- Adds them to the board page associated with the role
Note: clicking "approve selected" will send an email to the applicant with the information below. Choosing "reject selected" does not notify them - please be sure a member of the appropriate approving team follows up with anyone not selected for the role they applied for.
