# How to create a student community with Membree

Use the academy’s community to bring enrolled students together, share posts, and moderate conversations.

The community belongs to your organization’s academy. Prepare a course, authorize student access, and have students start the course to record enrollment. Then use Community to post, comment, and share attachments. The organization’s team can moderate content in that space.

## Decide who participates and how to communicate

The community brings together students enrolled in the academy’s courses and the team managing that environment. It is linked to the organization, so select the correct space before preparing the first posts.

Prepare a welcome message. Explain which questions to post, how to share materials, and who follows the conversations.

Choose moderators. Organization members can moderate their community. Agree on a content review process with the team without promising a response time you have not established.


## Prepare access and start the conversation

You do not need to create a separate product type called community. The space is associated with the academy delivering the courses.

- Select the organization and prepare the course that gives participation context. Review its content and access method, through a purchase or manual grant.
- Ask the authorized student to open and start the course. Starting records the enrollment used to recognize participation in the academy community.
- Open Community in the academy area. In the central dashboard, the address also identifies the academy to keep conversations in the correct space.
- Publish a welcome message or a question related to the course. A post needs text or an uploaded attachment.
- Use attachments when they contribute to the conversation. Wait for uploading to finish before checking the post and opening its material.
- Follow comments and replies. The team and authors can delete content within their available permissions; moderate according to the guidance you gave students.

## Check participation with an enrolled account

Use a student account that started a course in the academy. Check that it can open the community, read the first post, comment, reply, and like a post.

Posts appear from newest to oldest, with more results loaded as needed. An older message may be further down; check the post and its comments before concluding that content disappeared.

Also check that the team accesses the same organization space. Communities are isolated by academy: a post from another environment should not be treated as part of your group.


## Consider the community’s scope

The space is shared across the academy, including students enrolled in its courses. Do not present it as a private channel for each course or cohort. Give messages context so participants from different courses can understand the conversation.

An e-book purchase alone does not establish the course enrollment used by this community rule. This flow also does not provide a standalone product for selling only community access.

Community access uses recorded enrollment. Product access expiration and community moderation are separate matters; review participant management before promising automatic removal when an access period ends.

Explain how to request support when a conversation needs individual attention, preserving the context of shared discussions.


## Frequently asked questions

### Is the community created as a separate product?

Not in this flow. It belongs to the organization’s academy and serves students enrolled in its courses and the environment’s team.

### Does buying an e-book grant community access?

The current rule uses course enrollment. An e-book purchase alone does not create that enrollment or guarantee community access.

### Who can moderate posts?

The organization’s authorized team can moderate the space. Authors can also delete their own content within the available permissions.
