Episode Description:

In this episode of the Accreditation Made Easy podcast, Areaka Jewell explains how changing roles in PowerDMS assessments can save time, reduce frustration, and preserve your work—especially when feedback from mock assessors and formal assessors conflicts. This practical technique ensures no work is wasted and offers flexibility for shifting interpretations. Areaka walks you through exactly how to set up a team member role, change attachment visibility, and return to previous versions of a file with ease.

0:43 – The real question: What do you do when one assessor says "too much" and another says "not enough"?

1:10 – Don't delete anything—just change the role. Here's why.

1:40 – Meet your new favorite tip: Changing attachments to a role like Team Member to temporarily hide them.

2:30 – Step-by-step walkthrough on how to create the Team Member role and update attachment visibility.

4:15 – Real-life story: A recent assessment where this saved an entire file from being deleted due to a “Not Applicable” recommendation.

5:15 – Final tip: Always preserve your work. You can always bring it back later.

5:45 – Free download link and encouragement to share this with a fellow Accreditation Manager.
