Getting Started: Committees

Committees and Workspaces have similar setup processes, as Committees have their own version of the Workspace feature. However, the features in the Committees tool are geared towards small groups of users who will all be allowed equal access to view, edit and delete contents from the shared file library and discussion board, while Workspaces are designed for larger groups where more per-user moderation is needed. Decide which of these two features suits your needs best; if you’d rather use a Workspace, see our corresponding Getting Started guide.

Getting Started with Committees

Begin the process by creating a basic committee and, if desired, setting up a basic workspace in the same interface.
