The success of our mCommunity relies on contributions from our community members, our #FriendWithInsights: answering questions, sharing best practices, and sharing feedback - that’s why we recognize our top contributors with mChampion status. 

 

 

Program Goals

 

Our three primary goals behind this program are to promote trust, flexibility, and gratitude.  

  • Trust - When you see a #FriendWithInsight identified as a mChampion, you can trust that their expertise has been validated. Their expertise is demonstrated through completing mAcademy courses and providing quality answers to community questions. 
  • Flexible Knowledge Sharing - The time and attention of our #FriendWithInsights are in high demand. Our #FriendWithInsightss’ ability to contribute may vary depending on other professional and personal priorities. Therefore, we hope to allow experts to match their contributions to their time and interests while rewarding the other ways they develop their expertise. 
  • Gratitude - Our community is at its best when #FriendWithInsights actively contribute. You drive tremendous success in our community by answering questions, sharing tips and tricks, or presenting at events. We want to ensure that we recognize and reward our top contributors, not just when they achieve mChampion status but as they continue to impact our community.

Thank you for this detailed but easy to understand/follow explanation of the program!


Very excited about this!


@kelly.bebenek , could you kindly remind me what a ‘release course’ is? I feel like I know, but wanted to confirm, thanks!


Hi @Maria Dehne - Great question!

In a nutshell, a "Release Course" is your fast-track guide to mastering our latest product updates. We roll these out twice a year and they're part of our bigger vision called "Everboarding." We are moving in this direction because we are investing heavily in our product roadmap and we needed a way to keep our customers up-to-date with all the new bells and whistles without missing a beat. Courses will only be around 10 minutes long and come with a LinkedIn and Community Badge (and of course points).

 

We made this a requirement to the mChampions program because we want you to be in the know about the latest and greatest. 

 

Here's what you can expect:

  1. Education on Point: We break down the key changes and tell you why they matter. No fluff, just the good stuff.

  2. Custom-Tailored Insights: We focus on what you actually need to know, and how these updates can drive your success.

  3. Hands-On Demos: We walk you through new features with practical how-tos. Picture it as a live demo but at your own pace.

  4. Get Cred: Once you complete the course, flaunt it! You'll earn LinkedIn and Community badges to showcase your newfound expertise.

We will launch this as part of the Winter (or Summer if you are in Australia) '23 Release Course coming in October.

 

What do you think about this?


Awesome, I love it, thanks @kelly.bebenek !


Bring it on 😁
