Create programs to group related change initiatives together for better coordination and oversight.

Creating a new program

  3. Fill in the program details:
    • Name - Clear, descriptive title for the program
    • Description - Overview of program objectives and scope
    • Status - Active, On-hold, or Completed

Program details

Name and description

Choose a clear name that identifies the program’s purpose:
  • “Digital Transformation 2026”
  • “HR Systems Modernization”
  • “Supply Chain Optimization”
The description should explain:
  • Strategic objectives
  • Key outcomes expected
  • High-level scope boundaries

Dates

Setting start and end dates helps with:
  • Timeline visualization
  • Progress tracking
  • Resource planning
  • Reporting periods
Program dates don’t constrain project dates. Projects within a program can have their own timelines.

Adding projects to a program

After creating a program, add projects in two ways:

From the program detail page

  1. Open the program
  2. Click Add project
  3. Select from unassigned projects
  4. Click Assign

From a project

  1. Open a project
  2. In project settings, find Program
  3. Select the parent program

Creating projects within a program

You can create new projects directly linked to a program:
  1. Open the program detail page
  2. Click Create project
  3. Fill in project details
  4. The project is automatically assigned to the program

Access requirements

Only organization admins can create programs. Regular members can view programs but not create them.
