Create a group

Each group must belong to a group program created by a client admin. The program settings determine who can create groups associated with it.

1. From the community, select Groups.

2. Under Find a Program, select the most relevant program.

3. Select Create a New Group.

4. Enter a descriptive Group Name.

5. Next, enter a more detailed description of the group, its purpose, and why other employees might want to join.

6. Upload a file to use as a group photo. We recommend 354 by 198 pixels. The image will appear with the group name in the list of groups for the program, so choose an image that represents your purpose and gets the attention of potential members.

7. If the group is only online, select Virtual.

   Otherwise, enter an Address.

8. The program settings determine whether the group's creator can select a Membership Type.

   • Closed Group: Employees request to join the group. The group creator receives a notification and can approve the requests.

   • Open Groups: Any employee who can view the group can join it. The group admins are notified when someone joins.

9. The program settings determine whether the group's creator can select Tags for the group.

   Select a relevant tag that employees can use as a filter when they search for groups.

10. Select Create Group.
