Frequently Asked Questions

Welcome to the Margo Membership Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section! Here, we aim to address common inquiries to help you better understand our membership program. If you have additional questions, please feel free to reach out to our support team.

Onboarding for New Members: Upon completion of the membership agreement by an organization, the Margo Project Manager will organize an onboarding call. This initial call is just an opportunity to address any questions or concerns, and it's the groundwork for new members to be thoroughly equipped and confident in contributing to the project from day one.

Membership Engagement Levels: The capacity for membership within the focus groups is entirely flexible and dictated by the member organizations. This adaptable approach allows Organisations to adjust their participation according to their needs, ensuring that every member can engage in a manner that is most beneficial to them.

Focus Group Meeting Frequency: Margo's focus group meetings last one hour and foster meaningful engagement. These weekly gatherings create a valuable platform for collaborative discussions on relevant topics and diverse perspectives.

Collaboration Tools: Margo's collaboration tool is GitHub. Upon joining the project, new members are granted access to all the private repositories currently utilised by the Focus Groups.

What if I've never used GitHub? For new members who are unfamiliar with GitHub, the Margo Project Manager is available to provide training for those who request it.

Required Engagement Time: We recommend that participants allocate 2 hours each week for their involvement in focus groups. This includes 1 hour dedicated to attending the weekly meeting, coupled with an additional hour set aside for asynchronous activities. During this time, members are encouraged to review the discussions from the meetings and submit their insights or comments on various topics. This practice not only enhances the conversation but also cultivates a robust and interactive dialogue among all participants, enriching the overall experience.

When can my Organisation Start participating? The onboarding process can begin as soon as the membership agreement has been fully executed.
