Challenge groups ("themes")

Challenge groups (or "themes") provide a way to present a number of challenges together based on any criteria you choose, whether by topic area, geographical location, organizational boundaries or any other factor.

NOTE: The Challenge groups feature is only available in the Medium, Enhanced and Enterprise plans.

Learn more about segmenting your community with Challenge and User groups.

Examples

• For instance you might want to run a separate challenge on a single topic (e.g. "improving customer response times") across a number of departments or divisions ("finance", "engineering", etc.).
• Or you might want to create specific challenges by region so you would create a challenge group for "North America" and another for "Europe"
• You could have individual challenges for specific teams - and one overall challenge for everybody in the organization.
• You could display challenge groups according to employee tenure, location, or position type.

Challenge groups let you group the challenges so they are accessible from one place.
