Step 2: Add/Join your Organisation
When you complete your Team Player profile, you can select the Organisation you work for from the list of Organisations. If your Organisation does not appear in the list, you can create a profile for your Organisation. Don’t forget to include the coordinates of your Organisation’s exact location to place it on the Map!
By creating a profile for your Organisation, you can provide Platform users with basic information about your Organisation (e.g. location, website, etc.) as well as a description of your Organisation’s activities and its mission.

How did Nathan get started?
Step 1: Nathan registered as Team Player and created his Team Player profile with some basic information about himself and his involvement in Sport & Development.
How did Nathan add his Organisation?
Step 2: He then checked to see if a profile for the Organisation he works for - Mercy Corps - had already been added. (It hadn't!)
He created an Organisation profile for Mercy Corps, with information about the type of organisation, its location and a brief description of its mission and activities.
How did Nathan add his Project?
Step 3: After that, Nathan then created a Project profile for the project he's working on (the Moving Forward project), which provides information about the Project, including the objectives, target group, lessons learned and much much more...
It's just 3 easy steps...
Let the Operating Team know if you have any problems signing up.
