Your dashboard is built with tools to organize recurring programming for your regular participants, giving you full control over who sees what and when. **Set privacy levels for your current participants** Create an opportunity and set its Visibility to Private, then choose the Participant Groups, Affiliations, or Credentials that can see it. Use Accessibility to decide who can sign up: Open (anyone who can see it) or Restricted (only the people you choose). **Use recurrence for everyday programming** Schedule opportunities that repeat daily or weekly to keep your recurring events organized and on track. **Flexible opportunities for self-reported hours** Flexible opportunities let participants log hours they completed on their own time—perfect for things like front desk shifts, weekly meal prep, daily art classes, and other ongoing activities. Participants sign up once and report their hours whenever they complete the work. - [FAQs](https://support.goldenvolunteer.com/knowledge_base/faqs?hsLang=en) - [Organizer Resources](https://support.goldenvolunteer.com/knowledge_base/organizer-resources?hsLang=en#main-content) -
