We’ve got a training session for the HiNZ team coming up, and thought it would be wonderful to have some of our valued community members join us.

It would be particularly helpful for [@STAHDigital-council](https://ehealthforum.nz/groups/stahdigital-council), [@NMI-exec](https://ehealthforum.nz/groups/nmi-exec), [@HiNZ-fellows](https://ehealthforum.nz/groups/hinz-fellows), and [@moderators](https://ehealthforum.nz/groups/moderators). @dmeiklejohn too.

We’ve got this capped at 10 eHealth Forum members in order to keep things manageable.

For those who can’t make it (or would like to prepare), the big concepts are covered beautifully in this article by the Discourse (our ‘old’ platform) team:

> **[Community Acquisition Channels: Beyond "Build It and They Will Come"](https://blog.discourse.org/2025/10/community-acquisition-channels-beyond-build-it-and-they-will-come/)**

> Successful community growth doesn’t happen by accident. You need a deliberate acquisition strategy that goes beyond vanity numbers and focuses on attracting the right people.

Thanks Nathan. We’ll aim to get someone from STAH Digital Council along.
