Collaborations bridge the gap between platform-endorsed content and user-generated content (UGC). A Collaboration is an assigned group of users authorised to post, share, and manage learning content on behalf of a single, identifiable entity, such as an internal team, subject matter area, or brand.
Each Collaboration acts as a single source of truth, complete with its own unique name and thumbnail. All assigned members of that Collaboration have the permissions to post, update, manage, and monitor content created under the group's identity.
When to Use Collaborations
Collaborations are particularly useful any time you need content to be officially owned and managed by a team rather than an individual.
You might use a Collaboration when you want to:
Represent a team or department: Create a centralised identity (for example, "People Team," "L&D Team," or "Marketing") to manage and own all content related to their function.
Post on behalf of a senior leader or expert: Allow assigned team members to publish content in the voice of a CEO or an internal subject matter expert.
Simplify content handovers: If a team member leaves the organisation or a new expert joins a field, the Collaboration maintains the content ownership. This ensures a single, recognisable source of information remains, making handovers seamless.
Give enhanced posting permissions: Grant a specific individual or group increased permissions to post UGC.
Enable group event management: Allow multiple people to collectively manage and maintain a single event, ensuring continuity and shared responsibility.
Creating a Collaboration
Creating a Collaboration allows you to group specific users together to manage and share targeted content.
To create a new Collaboration:
Go to Manage > Collaborations.
At the top of the Collaborations list, click the Add Collaboration button.
In the Create New Collaboration popup, enter a unique Collaboration Name.
Click Create.
Once created, your new Collaboration will appear in the Collaborations list. You can then select it to begin adding people, managing settings, or viewing associated content.
Note:
After creating a Collaboration, you can add members in the People tab within that specific Collaboration and selecting + Add people.
