We create and share resources about scientific community management to support the design, nurture, and evaluation of STEM communities in a range of contexts. While many of our 100+ free resources (which have been downloaded more than 50,000 times!) are created by CSCCE staff, and build from our ongoing research program, we also co-create some of our resources with members of our community of practice.
We’re gradually building out a series of carefully curated resource pages that currently includes:
- Glossary of scientific community management terms
- CSCCE Community Participation Model
- Creating community-engaged content
- Scaffolding
- Scientific Community Profiles
- Hiring / Becoming a community manager
- Being a scientific community manager
- STEM Community Manager Case Studies
- Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)
- Community programming
- Online communities and communication tools
- Organizing community events
- Community champions programs
If you’d like to contribute, for example by creating a case study about you and your work or a profile about your community, we’d love to hear from you (info@cscce.org).
