Participate overview

What is Participate?

Participate is a social learning platform designed to help educational institutions and organizations create and maintain communities of practice (COPs) using collaboration tools, discussions, direct messaging capabilities, peer-to-peer mentorships, and more. Managers can create self-paced online courses for upskilling employees and academic initiatives.

Organizations can send segmented accouncements to community members about upcoming events and receive feedback, engage with peers, or view training courses via embedded discussion threads. Participate allows universities to create cohorts or groups to facilitate targeted communication across specific topics and interests. The system also lets users maintain collections of applications, documents, and websites in collaboration with team members.

Participate integrates with various third-party systems via Zapier such as Mailchimp, Google Calendar, Slack, Airtable, Twitter, Eventbrite, and more.
