Questions about this workflow
Will every person mentioned be enriched?
Your instruction should limit enrichment to clearly identified external professionals relevant to the course. Do not include students or people whose role is unclear.
Does enrichment send outreach?
No. Bettercontact returns available contact data. Review it and decide separately whether to contact anyone.
