Slack: General Information

Getting started with Slack

What is Slack:

A Slack workspace is made up of channels, where team members can communicate and work together. When you join a workspace, you’ll create an account using your email address. You can use the same email address to join as many workspaces as you’d like, but you’ll have separate Slack accounts for each one.  To register to join Carson’s Village Slack, click here.

Joining Channels
