There are two types of invitations through which you can join a Group as an Adult user:

Getting Started as a Learner on WeSchool
Once you have registered, here are the first steps we suggest you take to start off on the right foot within the learning community you have been invited to:
-
SET UP YOUR PROFILE 👤
To begin, set up your WeSchool profile so other users can get to know you!
Having an up-to-date profile not only improves your visibility on WeSchool but also facilitates interactions with other community members.
To start setting up your WeSchool profile:
- choose a profile picture
- customize the profile information, making it visible to everyone or hiding it from other users
- connect your Social profiles to WeSchool to build a broad and diverse network of contacts
- add your Bio to the profile to tell other users more about yourself, such as your role in the company or the topics you want to explore during the training
-
INTERACT WITH OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS 🗣️
It's time for you to introduce yourself to the other community members!
WeSchool is a learning community where users can interact both in social learning environments like the Wall and privately through WeSchool Chat.
You can chat, exchange opinions with other Group members, publish Posts and Comments, and attach files starting from the Wall, the Group's virtual bulletin board.
First, write a welcome message through a Post on the Wall, briefly introducing yourself and announcing your presence in the Group.
Besides commenting on the Wall, you can add reactions to Posts and Comments from other users using WeSchool Emojis.
-
CHECK OUT THE MODULES’ CONTENT 📚
To enrich your learning experience within the community, you can have a look at the educational materials in the Modules section.
From here you can:
- view the Modules' content uploaded by the Instructor (videos, images, documents, and much more)
- track your progress to monitor your learning performance in real time throughout the course or within individual Modules
- add content to the Modules by suggesting educational resources to be integrated into them
Now that you have taken your first steps as a Learner, you can continue to explore all the features of WeSchool and navigate between Spaces and Groups!
