Hi everyone,

Hi everyone,
I am a verified educator, but unfortunately, I missed the initial email invitation to join the GitHub-Global-Campus/Global-Campus-Teachers repository, and the 7-day invitation link has now expired.
Could a GitHub Education administrator please trigger a new invitation to my GitHub username?
Thank you so much for your help!

Hi @lb-projects, thanks for the clear write-up.

Repository invitations expire after 7 days, and they can't be re-sent or extended by community members. A new invitation has to be issued by the GitHub Education team, so a GitHub Support ticket is the fastest route.

Recommended steps

1. Check whether the invitation is still pending

Before filing a ticket, rule out a stale email link:

1. Open the repository directly: https://github.com/GitHub-Global-Campus/Global-Campus-Teachers. If an invitation is still active, an Accept invitation banner appears at the top of the page.
2. Check [github.com/notifications](https://github.com/notifications) and the inbox (including spam and promotions folders) of the email address linked to your GitHub account.

2. Confirm your educator status is active

Make sure you're signed in with the same account (lb-projects) that was approved, and that it still shows as a verified educator on [GitHub Education](https://education.github.com/). An invitation sent to a different account will not appear for you.

3. Contact GitHub Education support

If the invitation has expired and no banner appears, submit a request through the [GitHub Education support form](https://support.github.com/contact/education). You can use this template:

Subject: Request to re-send expired Global-Campus-Teachers invitation

GitHub username: lb-projects
Account type: Verified educator
Repository: GitHub-Global-Campus/Global-Campus-Teachers
Issue: The 7-day invitation link expired before I could accept it.
Request: Please issue a new invitation to my GitHub account.

Tip

Submit the ticket from the email address registered with your GitHub account. This helps support match the request to your educator approval faster.

Note

Posting in Community Discussions doesn't notify the Education team directly, and staff generally can't act on account-specific requests here.

Warning

Don't share personal details such as institutional emails or ID documents in this public thread. Provide them only through the support form if requested.

Hope this gets you sorted quickly. If support resolves it, consider posting a short update so others with expired invitations know the path that worked.

Hi! If the invitation has expired, you’ll probably need to have the GitHub Education team or a repository administrator send a new invitation.

Since you’re already verified as an educator, I’d recommend contacting GitHub Education Support and mentioning your GitHub username, the repository name ("GitHub-Global-Campus/Global-Campus-Teachers"), and that the original 7-day invitation expired.

They should be able to confirm your eligibility and let you know whether they can resend the invitation. I’d avoid creating another account or changing your educator verification unless Support specifically asks you to.
