Getting Started Guide

Welcome to Connect Community, the vibrant and engaging community where you can connect, learn, and grow with like-minded individuals. This space is for you and has been designed to provide continued support in the work you do.

With so much to explore and discover, we encourage you to dive right in and engage in the ways that best suit your needs.

To get started, we suggest checking out these three activities that can jump-start your journey:

  1. Update your profile with your photo and demographics.
  2. Check out the Help/FAQ page.
  3. Ask a question in a community discussion forum to get valuable insights from your peers.



Update Your Profile

Updating your profile is important in connecting with like-minded peers based on shared expertise and experiences. To add a photo and other demographics to your profile, simply go to Profile > My Profile from the main navigation bar, and use the Actions drop-down under the photo or avatar to select Change Picture. While updating your profile, take a moment to review your Privacy Settings (under the My Account tab on your profile) to ensure your profile visibility is set to your liking. By taking these simple steps, you'll be able to make meaningful connections with your peers and maximize the value of your Tandem membership.

Update Your Preferences

Take control of your community experience by customizing your notification preferences. From your profile page, navigate to My Account > Community Notifications to choose how you receive updates (real-time, daily digest, or consolidated digests), then visit Email Preferences to decide which categories of emails you'd like to receive via email. While you're there, review your Privacy Settings to manage what other members can see about you. These simple adjustments let you control your community communications, ensuring you stay connected without overwhelming your inbox.

Simply select Participate > Post a Message from the main navigation bar, choose the appropriate community, enter a descriptive subject line, type your question, and press Post. You can also browse existing discussions and share your thoughts by pressing the blue Reply button.
