You will then be directed to the Projects page. On the right-hand side of the screen there will be a + icon and Create Project button, click on it to start a new project.

You will be redirected to the Create Project page. Here you will have the option to add a Project Banner for your project. Scrolling down you will see Project Overview which has mandatory fields such as Title, Description, Active Challenge: which refers to the challenge associated with your project, Associated Lab: which refers to the labs associated with your projects, and permission checkboxes that enables you to allow users outside your team to view your project and download your project files.

Click Continue to head to the Team Building page.

On this page, you will find the Recruiting Status of your project, Required Skills needed by teammates, a Checkbox to Create Project Team Chat, and an area where you can input Team Members by Name, Position, and Role. Click the green + button on the right-hand side to add more team members.

Once you are finished, click on Create Project.

Now, you can develop your project further once it has been created. In addition to the Details and Team Building pages, you can now add your pitch, images, videos, files, links, and any additional information.

You can either use the timeline above or select Continue at the bottom to navigate through the steps

On the Pitch page, you will be able to select one of the many pitch templates provided. From there, you will be able to add more details about your project.

Under Gallery, Files, & Links, you can upload media files such as images and videos.

Under Team Building, you can set the recruiting status and required skills of the project. In addition, you can specify who to add by selecting the green + button and assigning them their permissions.
