Look for the new Michigan IT workspace in U-M Slack<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There is a new workspace on Slack that is specifically for members of the Michigan IT community: the Michigan IT Slack workspace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within the workspace, members can find and easily connect with IT colleagues across the university,  join or create public and private channels on IT-related topics, participate in a community of practice, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Michigan IT workspace was introduced to communities of practice in early December, and is now available to anyone in the university community with an interest in technology. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Michigan IT Slack workspace is intended for informal networking and information-sharing. The workspace does not replace formal service or support-related questions, which should continue to be directed to the appropriate team or helpdesk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to join<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To join the Michigan IT Slack workspace, you must have a U-M Slack account<\/a> and be a member of the michigan-it-slack MCommunity group<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The michigan-it-slack MCommunity group has been pre-populated with all members of Michigan IT communities of practice and recipients of the Michigan IT newsletter with a umich email address. New members can self-subscribe to the list and existing members can unsubscribe from the list based on their preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
