Find out if I am a member of a Group?
All of the Groups (Public and Private) working inside the Portal are visible to the public. When you click on the Group tab you will be able to see a long list of Groups. You can click on any of the Groups but will only be able to see contents that the (Public or Private) Group has published.
1. Click on the Group tab and look at the right column to see
the My Groups portlet.
If you are a Member of a Group OR think you are a member of
a Group you should not only see ALL the contents inside this Group area
but also a navigation bar allowing you to work in the Group space.
If you believe you should be a member of a Group, but do not see the Group listed, or cannot see any of the tabs to work inside the Group, email the Portal Administrator.
For more in-depth information on working in a Group:
To become a member of a Group please email the Portal Administrator.
To request a Group please email the Portal Administrator or your Group Coordinator to request assistance.
The user will see only those Groups listed of which he or she is a Member. If you believe you should be a member of a Group, but do not see the Group listed, or cannot see any of the tabs to work inside the Group, email the Portal Administrator.
Make my Group public or private?
