    Hello everyone!

    I am so excited to welcome you to AAP Community, the new community for members of the Association of Administrative Professionals. Here you can share ideas, discuss challenges, post questions, search for other members, and more. Now you don't have to wait for the next meet-up to connect with your peers-you can do it here, 24/7.

    I encourage you to search through the Open Forum/General Discussion AAP Community library-and to upload useful content yourself.

    As you get started exploring, here are a few tips to help get things going on the community:

    1. To login to the site, click the Sign In button in the top right corner, then follow the prompts
    2. You’ve been subscribed to the Daily Digest, which means that you will receive one email each morning containing all of the previous day’s post in an easy-to-digest format. You can switch your subscription to Real Time (you’ll receive an email every time there’s a new post) or No Emails (you won’t receive emails from the community but you can still view discussions online. You can manage your subscriptions here: https://aapcommunity.canadianadmin.ca/network/members/profile/myaccount/my-settings?section=subscriptions 
    3. To respond to a question, use the “Reply to Group” link to send your reply to the group (we encourage this if your response will help others and add to the body of knowledge) or “Reply to Sender” to send a private offline message to the author of the message.
    4. Missed a couple of posts in a discussion? Click the “View Thread” link at the bottom to see the original question and all replies.
    5. Take a moment to search for your friends in the Member Directory and send them a contact request. You can also add someone as a contact by selecting the menu underneath his or her photo in the discussion post. Feel free to try it out and friend request me now!

    Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have questions or need help—that’s what I’m here for!

    I hope you enjoy this awesome new resource!

    Have a great day,

    The AAP Community is a private, safe place to connect, network, and share ideas that help us to learn and grow personally and professionally. If you know of any tech related tips or tricks, I would be more than grateful if you could share them with me. I am constantly learning about technology and would appreciate it!

    The integration process of the community site to our website, and understanding all the components of this project has been a great opportunity for me to learn and grow. Looking forward to connect with our members.
