Expert Badges

There are around 70 million admins and moderators among all Facebook Groups today. These people are considered experts in the group’s industry or niche. They can be the go-to person for any interest or topics under discussion. Sometimes, there are also selected members of the community with such expertise. The new tools for Facebook Groups now allow an admin to designate some members of the group as experts. The group member chosen will then display an expert badge after accepting the position. Admins can then invite these experts to Q & A sessions or to give an additional perspective on important group discussions.
