"What are the gaps in onboarding members in my community?"

"How can I set new members up for success in joining my community?"

"How can we do better in ensuring our new members have a smooth transition into the community?"

"How are others onboarding their communities?"

For many, entry into a new community may be a smooth process, but for others, it may be more complicated. Every community and each member’s journey through them is unique.

Join NVPC’s Community Matters Team and our 3 speakers representing a diversity of communities, as we take a deep dive into the onboarding process and its importance in shaping the community experience.

In this 2-hour workshop, you will

• Understand the importance of the onboarding process in ensuring future engagement and retention of new community members,
• Reflect on your community’s unique onboarding processes,
• Exchange ideas on how to improve onboarding,
• Address challenges faced in onboarding members,
• Enjoy a safe space to reflect, share with, and learn from fellow community leaders!

We look forward to seeing you there!
