To find your EarthScan Organization, go to the EarthScan menu and hover over the square icon. Select ‘**Org home**’ from the options that appear. Here you will find all of the Portfolios that you have access to. 

### **User Types in EarthScan**

**User type** specifies the kind of permissions an EarthScan user holds, and is assigned by the user with the role of Org Owner. In EarthScan, there are three types of users: 

- **Members** - users can *view, create* and *share* Portfolios
- **Admins** - users have the same permissions as **Members**. And they can also: 
    - - *Invite* users to join the Organization
          - *Remove* **Members** from an Organization - but they *cannot remove* **Admins**
          - *Promote* users from **Members** to **Admins** - but they *cannot change* **Admins** to **Members**

- **Org Owners** - users have the same permissions as **Admins**. And they can also: 
    - - *Remove* **Admins** from an Organization
          - *Change* users from **Admins** to **Members**
