📘 Understanding Sequences in Vome

What are sequences?

Sequences are step-by-step task lists created by your organization and assigned to you in Vome. They help guide you through important processes, such as onboarding or training.

Each sequence includes a series of steps that must be completed in order.

How do sequences work?

Sequences are made up of individual steps. Each step is a task or action you need to complete.

Once you finish all the steps in a sequence, it will be removed from your homepage so you can focus on any remaining or in-progress sequences.

Example sequence:

  • Step 1: Submit a waiver

  • Step 2: Attend an onboarding session

  • Step 3: Complete training

How are sequences assigned?

Sequences are assigned by your organization based on your:

  • Role

  • Responsibilities

  • Requirements (such as onboarding or certifications)

Can I track my progress?

If your organization allows it, you can self-track your progress in a sequence.

You may see options like:

  • Mark as complete

  • Skip step

These buttons appear next to each task if self-tracking is enabled.

Are sequences mandatory?

This depends on your organization. Most sequences are required to finish before you start volunteering or to remain eligible.

Can I have more than one sequence?

Yes, you may have multiple sequences assigned to you at the same time.

Each will appear on your homepage until completed.

Who should I contact about my sequence?

Vome does not manage or monitor sequences. If you have any questions about your assigned sequence, please contact your organization directly.

Use the Contact admin button in the top-right corner of your sequence view to reach them.
