How it works

Step 1: Get yourself signed up by clicking the link above ☝️.
Step 2: Join as many channels as you like – there are 70+ to choose from!
Step 3: If you’ve got a question, post it in the relevant group. If you’ve got an answer for someone else’s, step in. If you see a gap for a new channel, set it up.

FAQs

How much does it cost to join?
Absolutely nothing. Slack doesn’t charge for a free account so neither do we.

Can I promote my company’s products?
Not really, no. Our community is a place for learning and knowledge-sharing, not selling. If there’s a conversation going on that’s really apt and you think your product would genuinely solve the problem, feel free to mention it but you must be open about your relationship with it.

Can I invite other people to join?
Absolutely, the more the merrier! 100% of the community are Ismaili Professionals but if you know someone who’d find our channels valuable, by all means send them this link.

Can I phone up a fellow member?
Providing they’re happy for you to, sure! There’s actually a 1-to-1 video call facility built into Slack so you can do it all in-app and we’ve seen people do this quite often. For example, one Builder had an interview coming up and wanted to do a test run with someone else in the same field — they requested volunteers, someone accepted, and used slack to carry out the call.
