"Private communities is a killer feature for us. BraveNewTalent is the first platform on the market to successfully blend open and closed community environments, driving workforce engagement in a way that’s unique to the marketplace,” said Lucian Tarnowski, BraveNewTalent’s founder and CEO. “We’ve also had lots of interest in using Private Communities to power women in leadership networks, veteran communities, diversity communities, and several other critical skill areas."

Private Communities provide an excellent way for learning and development teams to enable an informal learning environment and facilitate just-in-time learning in a controlled environment across the workforce.  Studies have shown that organizations with highly-engaged workforces are more productive, more profitable, and have more satisfied customers.

"Because Private Communities are invite-only, companies can now securely share and discuss business critical and potentially sensitive information beyond the corporate firewall," said Sonia Araujo, BraveNewTalent’s director of product.  "These conversations can be kept going, with information always available to invited members but restricted from other organizations, individuals and search engines."

Private Communities feature customizable profile tabs, segmented member invite landing pages, and support for third-party integration including SurveyMonkey, Livestream, Box.net, and Virtual Blackboard. All Communities on BraveNewTalent support an unlimited number of members.

Available today, the Private Communities feature is offered as part of the current release of the BraveNewTalent social learning platform. For more information or to request a demonstration, please visit http://www.bravenewtalent.com/develop.
