Frenquently Asked Questions

What experience do I need?

You don’t need any experience to get started. Before you contribute, you must complete a quick training module that will set you up for success. After that, our team of editors is here to help every step of the way. Having a good grasp on the basics will help you write stronger articles or create better videos, but it’s not necessary.
