       2. Add topics in which you have expertise
       3. Add topics that you want to learn about
   13. What are Sub Topics?
       1. Sub topics sit within specific Topics of Interest. They are a way to further narrow down the broad industry fields into more specialized areas for conversation.
       2. Each Sub Topic has a field for WHY a topic of interest and a self rating that will feed into our matching algorithm and help give the person on the other end of the conversation an idea of your knowledge on the subject matter at hand.
   14. Where can I see the entire list of topics/subtopics inside of Lattitude?
       1. At this time you can type in any letter to the “topics” section of Lattitude to see the existing list of topics/subtopics. If you would like to see a larger list, your group admin(s) have a full excel file that they can share with you.

   16. What’s with the leaves and trees?
       1. Growth mindset! These icons signify a user’s Sub Topic self rating. As your knowledge grows on a particular sub-topic so does your experience level. We use a growing tree to symbolize this development.
   17. How do I sync my calendar and availability?
       1. Help article/video – https://golattitude.com/integrate-a-calendar/
       2. Time is one of our most valuable resources, which is why we built our platform around the idea of providing conversations around predetermined mutual availability.
       3. To update your availability click the availability tab. Add times that you are able to have a 30 minutes conversation. When you add availability, other users will be able to schedule calls with you. There is no accept option.
       4. We recommend that users add a recurring availability for at least 60 mins each week for the next 6 weeks.
       5. Recurring availability makes things easier. If you have already integrated your calendar and a meeting is scheduled on your personal calendar at a time that you
   18. I am having difficulty integrating my calendar. It might be due to the security systems in place at my company/organization.

       2. If you are having issues integrating your calendar(s), please share the following article/link with your internal IT/security contact. Please also include your group admin(s) and INFO@GOLATTITUDE.COM. https://golattitude.com/microsoft-outlook-integration/

   30. After my conversation I noticed that the “live camera” icon is still showing on my phone/computer – why is this?
       1. We have noticed that some devices notify the user that the camera is still active/on upon completion of the call. Lattitude is no longer using your camera. Upon completion of the call (time expired) or ending the call (red “hang up” button) – the call is over.
       2. Users have successfully resolved this issue by closing the internet tab(s) running Lattitude.

We welcome you to learn from one another and let us know if you are looking for specific guidance and are not able to find it in the next few weeks.
