Community Getting Started Checklist

Use this checklist as soon as you finish FacPro Community Foundations. It is meant to help a new member take a first real Community step without wandering through every page at once.

Best for: new members deciding how to introduce themselves, find the right spaces, and participate in the first week.

First-day checklist

Complete FacPro Community Foundations and confirm that your Community access has opened.
Review your dashboard for Community prompts, assigned groups, recommended resources, or events.
Open your notifications and look for replies, invitations, reminders, or role-specific updates.
Review your profile so other members can understand your role, organization, and interests.

Find your pathway

Use this quick matrix to choose a next step that matches how you enter the Community.

Do not overcomplicate the first week

Do not join every group immediately. Start with the ones that matter most.
Treat onboarding as the starting point, not the whole experience.
