# Posts

> Create and share announcements, resources, and lesson links with your cohort students.

Posts are announcements scoped to a cohort. Program owners and instructors use posts to share updates, attach files, link to specific lessons, and notify enrolled students — all from within a cohort.

## Where to find Posts

**As a program owner or instructor:** Go to [**Program Dashboard → Cohorts**](https://firstrespondershub.com/program-dashboard/cohorts), open a cohort, and click the **Posts** tab. From here you can create, publish, pin, and manage posts.

**As a student:** Go to [**Student Dashboard → Posts**](https://firstrespondershub.com/student-dashboard/posts) to see published posts from your enrolled cohorts.

## What you can do

* **Create posts with rich text** — Write announcements using headings, lists, bold/italic text, links, and inline images.
* **Attach files** — Upload up to 10 files per post (25 MB each) for students to download.
* **Link lessons** — Connect a post to specific lessons from the cohort's courses so students can navigate directly to them.
* **Save as draft** — Work on a post without publishing it. Drafts are only visible to program owners and instructors.
* **Publish and notify** — Publish a post to make it visible to students, with the option to send an email notification to all enrolled students.
* **Pin important posts** — Pin up to 3 posts per cohort so they always appear at the top of the student feed.
* **Edit or delete** — Update published posts or remove them when they are no longer relevant.
