The community constitutes a space where members are equal, and they can safely and freely learn from each other (not only from successes but also failures), meet new friends, discuss work-related matters, and engage in shared projects. Professional behaviour is an essential requirement and other members should not be judged or criticised– on the contrary, constructive debates are our most valuable asset. You are also expected to acknowledge the authors of the work that you may decide to use for your own purposes. Please remember that by contributing to the community you are making it better and more valuable. Important! When you join a community your profile details will be added to that community’s contacts list which can be accessed by all members. Therefore, it is important to fill your profile with as much professional information as possible. This simplifies building members’ visibility, successful working relationships, and trust. These profiles can only be seen by people with an NHS Scotland Athens username. Privacy The Knowledge Network When you joined The Knowledge Network you will have received an Athens NHS Scotland username and password. This allows you to access all the resources provided by NHS Education Scotland, including communities. As noted above, a key aspect of a January 2013 2
successful community is the ability to network with other members who share your interests. In order to do this effectively it is important to create or update your Knowledge Network profile accordingly. Once you have logged in to The Knowledge Network homepage you will have the ability to create your profile by clicking “Edit Profile” on the top right hand corner of your screen. Once you have populated your profile you will be able to choose from two privacy options found within the “Rules and Permissions” widget. Once you have logged in to our community you will also be able to subscribe to community alerts. While it is recommended when becoming a community member that you provide as much relevant information as possible the decision over which fields to populate and which to neglect is entirely up to you. If you would like further guidance on this or any other aspect of the Knowledge Network please contact knowledge@nes.scot.nhs.uk. Within the community This community has decided to employ open space meaning that as a member you will be able to access all areas of the community website. Our community is viewable online but internet users who are not members cannot contribute, access some resources, contact any of our members privately or view any of our members’ profile information. People with an Athens account but not a member will be able to see our discussion so we do ask that you keep it professional! January 2013 3
