In this tutorial, you can learn how to create a Space for your company or business.
A Space is a private and highly customizable environment that you can use to organize training programs for employees or colleagues through WeSchool’s learning communities.
Here are some practical examples to make the most of the main features of the Space:
- if you are a Training Manager, you can organize training activities, foster the growth of your employees, and measure the impact and quality of your onboarding programs using advanced management tools
- if you are an Instructional Designer, you can bring your training courses online, thus opening your learning community to Learners
- if you are a Team Leader, you can encourage collaboration and share the latest updates on current trends using WeSchool’s interactive tools

Customize your Space
Now, set up the Space for your company as follows:
- upload the company logo in JPEG or PNG format, not exceeding 50 MB by clicking the pencil icon
- enter the name you want to assign to the Space
- customize the URL, which is the link that identifies the Space, by typing the name of the Space after the hash (#)
To proceed, click on Next: create a Group:
Create your Group
A Group is a collaborative workspace where you can organize training programs, interact with colleagues on the Wall, and upload learning materials for your courses.
Next, customize the Group in three simple steps:
- upload the Group cover in JPEG or PNG format, not exceeding 50 MB by clicking the pencil icon
- enter the name you want to assign to your company Group.
- add a description of the Group summarizing its main objectives or outlining the activities and projects that will be covered
Make sure you have entered the Group name before clicking on Next: invite co-workers:
Invite your colleagues
Finally, enter your co-workers’ email addresses separated by a comma or space, and click on Invite. This will send them an email through which they can join the Group as Instructors.
If you do not want to invite your colleagues to join the Group at this moment, you can click on Skip this step and do it later:
As Instructors, both the employees and colleagues you invited will have all the necessary permissions to create new content and manage the Group and its activities.
