# Institutions

Eduflow's Public API is built around your institution. Institutions in Eduflow are the same concept as organizations in API's like GitHub and Sentry.

Institution membership is managed through [participants](/guides/participants.md). Institution owners can invite to them (or automatically have them linked upon registration through trusted domain names)

![Search, sort, and invite members to your Institution ](/files/-MSdzyU5oubilxSqRfbU)

Institutions own [courses](/guides/courses.md), which are created by their instructors.
