==Running events==

Anyone in EVE University can run an event, you don't need to be a staff member. This page by the [[Events_Department|Events Department]] will give you some ideas on how you can get involved in running an event. It can either be an event which is your own idea or an event we have run before. We keep a category of [[:Category:Events|popular events]] if you need some ideas. Once you've decided you'd like to run an event, the Events Department will help you iron out the details and advertise the event. For more information see our [[Guide_to_Running_Events|Guide to Running Events]].

==Fleets==

Have you ever been on a fleet before? If you have, you have a distinct advantage over the dozens of newbros who join EVE University every day having never been in a fleet. There are a bunch of ways you can help out in fleets, both PVP and PVE/mining fleets:

* Helping the Fleet Commander advertise the fleet beforehand

* Being a squad or wing commander or boosting the fleet

* Support roles like logistics (for combat fleets), scouts/pickets, or hauling (for mining fleets)

* Answering questions from newbros in the Fleet chat who have gotten a bit lost

* Commanding a fleet yourself

You do not have to be an expert to lead a fleet, feel free to organise one at any time. Make sure you're familiar with the basics ([[Rookies_guide_to_fleet_ops|Rookie's Guide to Fleet Ops]]) first and don't panic if you get totally whelped! Make sure you post an After Action Report on our forum, it will help you review what happened and what you could have done better, and will help other people learn also. If you enjoy combat fleets you may even want to try out our [[http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=66402|Fleet Command Course]].
