Explore channels from your company academy

At the top of the company academy, each user will now find a curated list showcasing both their private channels and the company's public channels.
Each channel is represented by a card that highlights the channel's name alongside the total number of learning materials it contains.
To help you navigate through the wealth of knowledge available, we've thoughtfully arranged the channels in descending order based on the volume of content they offer. Dive in and explore the channels to find new opportunities for growth and learning!

With just one click on the channel's name, you are taken to a brand new channel page where you can see all of the internal content within the channel.

On this page, you can also find:

1. A search bar that searches within the channel
2. Options to filter and sort through content
   • • Filter options are Type of content and Creator of content
     • Sorting options are  Date Created, Date Updated, and A-Z
3. A button to subscribe to the channel to receive updates when new content is added
4. A button that takes the user to the original channel page.

On this new page, admins of the channel have the ability to customize the look and feel of it by choosing a unique custom background and emoji that is displayed above the content. This allows for a much more visually appealing page for users.

Channel Subscription:

• When subscribing to a channel, the user will receive notifications every time new content is added
• If a user unsubscribes from a channel, they will no longer receive notifications
• When invited to a private channel, a user will receive a notification and email to accept or decline the invitation
