We're excited to share that Mt. San Jacinto College has officially launched Diligent Community, our new and improved board governance platform!
Diligent Community is the latest iteration of BoardDocs, offering a more modern, user-friendly experience with enhanced features for managing governance processes. As a cloud-based platform, it will serve as a central hub for:
- Board of Trustees and participatory governance meeting agendas and minutes
- District policies and procedures (once fully migrated)
- Board-related information and materials
This transition will follow a phased approach, allowing ample time for everyone to get comfortable with the new platform. Full implementation is planned for October 2025, with the exact timeline and support resources to be shared along the way.
Beginning in August, Board of Trustees Agendas will be available on Diligent Community. Participatory Governance and other meeting groups should plan to begin using Diligent Community in September and October with complete migration scheduled for the end of October.
Board agendas will continue to be directly linked via the MSJC website.
In the interim, we will continue using both BoardDocs and Diligent Community in parallel as we gradually migrate content and processes.
To support our Participatory Governance and other Meeting Group scribes and meeting managers, we've created helpful resources:
- A welcome video
- A video tutorial for managing agendas and minutes
- A step-by-step written guide for quick reference
We are optimistic about the improvements this transition will bring and appreciate your partnership as we move forward together. As with any new initiative, there may be unforeseen challenges, please don't hesitate to reach out for support.
Your engagement and feedback will be key to a smooth and successful implementation. Please take a few minutes to view the website announcement video here and feel free to explore the site.

Thank you for embracing this exciting transition as we modernize and streamline our governance processes!
