# What will I have access to if I was assigned the role of secretary for an event?

## If you have been assigned the role of secretary for an event, you will be able to send updates and check people in.

**![secretary](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Icons/Icon-Title/secretary.png?width=583&height=111&name=secretary.png)**

- **Single Event or Session Secretary** will have the ability to send updates, check participants in and expand the join code from the View Page for the session only.
- **Conference Secretary** will have the ability to send updates, check participants in and expand the join code from the View Page.

When you are assigned as a secretary for any event, you will now see the HQ button from your MobileMind Dashboard.

![1- HQ button](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/1-%20HQ%20button.png?width=688&height=355&name=1-%20HQ%20button.png)

When you click that button, you will be taken to your HQ Dashboard where you will see any events where you have been assigned a role of secretary, manager, or presenter. The single events are light blue, conferences are dark blue, and conference sessions are light purple.

![2- events](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/2-%20events.png?width=688&height=351&name=2-%20events.png)

![3- event types 2](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/3-%20event%20types%202.png?width=688&height=351&name=3-%20event%20types%202.png)

Prior to the day of the event, you have the ability to send updates to everyone that was invited to the event or just those that have indicated that they will be attending. Click on the event and then click **View**.

![4- view](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/4-%20view.png?width=688&height=351&name=4-%20view.png)

Click on the Updates button on the left sidebar and type your message. Once you have typed your message, you can choose to send it to everyone that was invited or only those that have indicated they will be attending. All messages will stay posted on this page for anyone that registers later.

### Join Code

On the day of the event, you will need to either give the join code out, send it in an update, or display it on the screen if you are hooked to a projector. To get to the join code, go to the **Participants** **Page** of the event or session.

You will see the join code that you can copy and paste or you can click the Expand button to display it on your screen. When participants enter the code, you will see the slider turn green.

![7-join code](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/7-join%20code.png?width=688&height=351&name=7-join%20code.png)

![8- expand](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/8-%20expand.png?width=688&height=351&name=8-%20expand.png)

### Manual Check-In

If your district has chosen not to use the join code for this event or if you have participants with technical difficulties, you can always check them in manually. You can use the filtering options to easily find people that you need to check in manually. You can click the RSVP status buttons or you can filter down more by using the filtering options below that. If you are searching for a name, use only the first or last name, not both.

![9-filter 1](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/9-filter%201.png?width=688&height=351&name=9-filter%201.png)

![10-filter 2](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/10-filter%202.png?width=688&height=351&name=10-filter%202.png)

When you find the participant you are looking for, just move the slider so it is green to mark them present. If someone needed to leave early, you may need to edit their time. If you roll your cursor to the right of the time, you will see the edit option and can edit the time there.

![11- slider](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/11-%20slider.png?width=688&height=351&name=11-%20slider.png)

![12edit time](https://knowledge.mobilemind.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Events-%20view%20and%20check%20in/Secretary/12edit%20time.png?width=688&height=351&name=12edit%20time.png)
