What are Communities?

Communities are dynamic webpages that showcase curated content from a variety of content types, such as blogs, jobs, resources, and more. Communities allow you to organize content by industries, academic categories, career skills, affinity / identity or any other topic for which you have multiple types of content.

What do they accomplish?

Communities help to streamline access to a variety of resources for students, faculty, alumni, and the broader campus. Within Communities, related career advice blogs, featured jobs, events and resources can be automatically aggregated so that your stakeholders can find everything they need in order to be successful. By virtue of their dynamic nature, users can find fresh content each time that they visit a Community, encouraging repeat visits and increasing your overall audience engagement!

While if you have the Communities Module activated within your uConnect platform you may be most familiar with Communities as front-facing webpages, Communities, for all uConnect users, can also act as both filters for your content types and as sign-up options for a user who is customizing their preferences.

Where can I find my Communities?

You can view and manage your Communities from the Manage > Communities section of your Admin dashboard.

Note: Communities will only be available for you to edit if you have the proper user level permissions. If you don't have Admin-level user permissions, please reach out to your team to ensure that you have the access that you need.
