Event Submission Form

Important:
All Form elements are 'required' except where noted.

Event Basics

Provide the core details that will appear on the event listing and detail page.
Enter the full name of your event. This will appear as the main title on the listing and event detail page.
Use this to provide extra context beneath the event title — such as the name of the presenting organisation, initiative, or program. It supports the title and adds clarity, but it's entirely optional.
Write a short overview that captures the purpose and tone of your event. This summary appears in event cards and list views, helping users quickly understand what’s on offer.
Important:
Ensure you use line breaks (press Enter) to assist readability. Avoid writing one long block of text.
✅ What you can do: Use line breaks to create short paragraphs. Write in plain text.
❌ What you can’t do: No bullet points, bold, italics, or numbered lists — this field does not support rich text formatting.
Provide a detailed overview of your event for potential Role Models. Describe what students will experience, the types of role models or workshops included, and the outcomes you hope to achieve. Mention relevant context, like the theme of the event or how it fits into your curriculum.
Select all formats that apply. For example, if your event takes place at a school but you're open to having a Role Model join remotely (e.g. via Zoom or Teams), you can select both Virtual and In-Person. This helps potential Role Models understand how they can participate and whether physical attendance is expected.
Important:
Select up to 5 'Event Category Tags' to help users better understand the themes of your event.
If you're unsure what tags you selected previously, click the "View Current Event" button at the top of this page to review them.
Note: If you have previously added 'tags' you can safely ignore this component – your existing 'tags' will be used.
