What is "gcconnex"

GCconnex is the Government of Canada’s professional social networking platform. It is only accessible via the Government of Canada network and contributors must have a government (.gc.ca) email address to be able to register for it. GCconnex enables public servants to connect and collaborate. It is a virtual network where public servants can connect with other public servants with similar interests, or with skills that will help them be more productive in their work.

GCconnex is an open source social networking tool which allows public servants to develop their own profiles, including descriptions of individual business activities, interests and expertise.

GCconnex is managed by the GC2.0 Tools Team, which also manages GCpedia. The team is part of the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat.
