The learning organization profile details
This is your big chance to make a great first impression with faculty or with schools. Your story needs to be about you. It needs to tell them who you are and what you care about most. Many of our faculty and schools say they usually ignore profiles with empty or incomplete profiles. It’s worth taking the time to give as much information about yourself or your schools as possible. Here are some tips for a great profile.

Be specific. Tell them what you’re passionate about and how you got interested in your favorite subjects

Double-check your spelling and grammar. Even the best writers make mistakes
Be positive and engaging
Don’ts
Be sarcastic or overly negative. People generally find positivity more attractive

Dwell on your past. If you do feel the need to mention it, talk about what you learned
When filling out your profile, try to think about what you would like to see if you were looking for someone like you!
Tips for creating a great the learning organization profile
Having a great profile is the key to success. Here’s some tips to show yourself in the best possible light.
Photos
Your photos are an essential part of the story you share, so all members must have at least one photo uploaded and approved. We know that members with more photos tend to receive more communication, therefore use this chance to show off your best side.
Do
Use a close-up or head shot as your main photo – no hats or sunglasses!
Smile – and look professional. Remember, if things work out, you’ll be teaching in the classroom in another art of the world, and schools want to know what they are getting.
You can use up to 4 photos so Include pictures that show you both with a professional headshot and at work or in the classroom.
Don’ts
Hide your face. Schools will not be able to see you, and your photo will be rejected
Use old pictures. We want to see you as you are now
Use group photos. Your profile is all about you, not your friends or family
For best results, have someone else take the photo, or use the timer on your device

Facts about the learning organization photo approval
Your profile photos are an essential part of having a successful experience on The Learning Organization and members who post photos are far more likely to get messages than those who don’t.
To keep our community safe and welcoming for everyone, we review all photos before they appear on the site. Here are some guidelines to help you choose the best profile photos. Although these are basic rules, we reserve the right to reject photos for any reason other than those specified below.
First, the basics to get your photo approved:
File format: All photos must be in the .jpg format
Size: Any size will do, but make sure it’s big enough to appear clearly
Content: Photos must be of you only. Friends and family are great, but we want to see clearly who you are
Here are some reasons why we may reject your photo:
It’s blurred or you are not visible
It contains nudity
It’s provocative or pornographic
It contains a child alone or children by themselves
It’s of a pet, an object or scenery
It contains personal information or details that could identify someone (e.g., names, addresses, phone numbers, social media handles
It has been altered in a way that significantly changes your appearance
It shows an illegal act or activity
It contains vulgar symbols, gestures, or gang signs/colors
It contains a dead animal (other than a fish)
Here’s a few tips for choosing the best photos:
Make it clear – Avoid blurry images or dark shadows
Shoot close up – The first photo you upload should be a close-up or head shot, not something taken at a distance
Strike a pose – Be upright and smiling – others are more likely to respond if you look professional an engaged, rather than slouching on your couch
Keep it recent – People want to see you as you are now, not who you used to be.
