LinkedIn groups provide focused areas for discussion and news sharing, and allow your Chapter Members to associate their personal LinkedIn accounts with your Chapter.

To setup your LERA Chapter LinkedIn group, your Chapter needs to:

  1. Designate someone to manage the LinkedIn group.
  2. That individual must create a personal LinkedIn account.

Please don't a LinkedIn group until a group manager has been found and they have a personal LinkedIn account.

Does your chapter have a special logo to use? If so, it will appear in the Groups Directory and on your LinkedIn pages. If not, we will use a typical LERA logo. LinkedIn only allows .png, .pjeg, or .gif files of 100KB or less.

When you are ready, please send [email protected] the following information:

  • Chapter Name (Note: "LinkedIn" is now allowed to be used in your group name.
  • Summary of your group (a brief description of your group and its purpose. Your summary will appear in the LinkedIn Groups Directory and will help people searching for your chapter find you)
  • Description (the full description that you enter here will appear on your LinkedIn group pages)
  • Website URL (add a URL to your LERA chapter website)
  • Owner email (the owner of your LERA Chapter LinkedIn group MUST have a personal LinkedIn account, or a group cannot be created)
