# IG Lead

**TLDR:** An IG Lead is the domain steward of a specific Interest Group responsible for the quality, culture, and direction of that IG and by extension the credibility of all Karma earned within it. This role is assessed, not self-selected.

The IG Lead is the **domain steward** of μLearn.They own the quality, culture, and direction of their Interest Group and by extension, the credibility of every Karma point earned within it.They are not managers. They are **stewards** of quality, of culture, of community.

### <mark style="color:$primary;">How to Become an IG Lead</mark>

IG Lead is not a role you choose by raising your hand.It is a role you earn through sustained contribution, demonstrated domain expertise, and community trust and then qualify for through a formal assessment process.

The assessment checks:

* Domain knowledge and expertise
* Community contribution history and Karma
* Understanding of μLearn's validation standards and protocol
* Ability to maintain quality and community health

> **Manual Intervention:** IG Lead appointments and removals require core team approval. Contact \[IG governance form].

### <mark style="color:$primary;">Who You're Accountable To</mark>

An IG Lead is accountable to three groups simultaneously:

**The learners in your IG** - for fair, consistent, timely validation.

**The μLearn core team** - for protocol compliance and quality standards.

**The partner ecosystem** - for the credibility of domain Karma that companies and opportunities rely on.

An IG Lead who is inactive, inconsistent, or compromises validation integrity will be reviewed and may be replaced.

### <mark style="color:$primary;">Coordination Duties</mark>

* Coordinate with **Campus Leads** for local IG activation
* Coordinate with **initiative owners** when IG members participate in programs
* Coordinate with **other IG Leads** for cross-domain challenges
* Provide regular **activity reports** to the core team
* Work with **Think Tank members** on task design and domain standards

### <mark style="color:$primary;">Escalation Duties</mark>

You are the **first escalation point** for:

* Karma disputes within your domain
* PoW quality disagreements between peers
* Community conduct issues within the IG
* Requests for new task types or domain expansions

Unresolved escalations are passed to the core team with full context.

### <mark style="color:$primary;">The Weight of This Role</mark>

Being an IG Lead means the credibility of your entire domain's Karma rests on the quality of your stewardship.When you validate a PoW you are telling every company, every mentor, and every opportunity that reviews that learner's profile: *"This is real. I confirmed it."*

That is not a light responsibility. It is the most important quality signal in the ecosystem.
