Group Question

The “Group Question” feature is a new polling functionality, that can be enabled in any CEPT group on the portal, as a generel tool to ask simple questions in group - for example to plan a meeting date.

The Group Question can be used to submit polls to the members of a group and define the meeting dates within the CEPT portal, thus replacing the most commonly used poll tools (e.g. Doodle).

Besides polls, the Group Question functionality allows asking different type of questions and resembles the Live Question tool in the Meetinghub, with only basic features.

Where to find it

Group Question is accessible only if enabled in a group on the portal. If the link is not visible on the group page , the Group Question  is not enabled for that specific group.

The function is found on the top menu.

When a question is asked in a group, it is indicated by a counter on the right side menu.

How to change your answer
