NDEO's Call for Online Forum Moderators

The NDEO Online Forums program is relaunching in January 2022 with a renewed focus on moderated conversations, the sharing of knowledge and insights, and building of community. We want to reduce the number of promotional posts in our subject specific forums so that we can increase member engagement and connection. Promotional posts will still be welcome in our Events forum.
