MSJC Launches Diligent Community - A Modern Governance Tool
8/8/2025
MSJC is excited to announce the transition of our Board Governance, Committee Meetings, and District Policies and Procedures from Diligent brand BoardDocs to Diligent Community—a modern, cloud-based platform designed to streamline and enhance our governance experience under the same Diligent brand. Due to changes with the Diligent brand, we are required to transition our governance platform from BoardDocs to Diligent Community.
Diligent Community is the next evolution of BoardDocs. You'll find that Diligent Community is very similar to BoardDocs but offers a more intuitive interface and improved functionality for managing:
- Board of Trustees, participatory governance, and group meeting agendas and minutes
- District policies and administrative procedures
- Board-related and participatory-related documents and resources
This transition will follow a phased approach, allowing 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 will plan to begin using Diligent Community in September and October, with complete migration scheduled for the end of October. Policies and procedures will begin to be transitioned in the early part of 2026. 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.
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 or to offer observations.
Your engagement and feedback will be key to a smooth and successful implementation. Please take a few minutes to view the announcement video, and feel free to explore the site.
