Analogy

Like a social media profile setting: public (instant) vs. private (approve who connects).

When to use which

  • Instant connect. Maximum reach, agencies don't wait. Best for newer schools or those building a network.
  • Manual approval. Curated network, full control. Best for established schools with quality control concerns.

After connecting (important)

After connecting on Edvisor, contact each agency separately to send an agreement. Recommended: store signed agreements in the Edvisor account for easy access by both parties.
