Forums via the committee homepage are a more effective way to facilitate your projects than discussions via email as the information is all in one place and cannot be lost.
Forums alert all committee members to discussion threads by email and allow full participation by members remotely.
Committee members can now create topics for discussion in their committee forums. This video shows you how to set up and use a committee forum.
- Topics can be added to the forum by entering a title and a short description.
- In the example in the above video, Ashani wishes to discuss a workshop being held by the ICS Children and Young Adults' committee. Upon signing into the ICS website, clicking her profile photo will display a list of her committees.
- Ashani invites the members of her committee to respond with their ideas by posting a comment. This comment will be emailed to all members of this committee. This prompts Jennifer to visit the forum topic and post a comment. (Notifications on the ICS website within in your account can be accessed by clicking on your profile photo. A red badge indicates the number of new notifications).
- Other committee members can then read the comments and respond to the discussion.
