Peer connections are similar to friends on social networking sites like Facebook. When you establish peers, you will have PCAT-based links to trusted collaborators with whom you can share work. For many PCAT users, peer relationships will be extensions of preexisting (or proposed) collaborations in the workplace or school. Peers can also be discovered by searching the **Peer Directory** by keyword to find other PCAT users who can, based on their credentials, make a contribution to your analytic work. |
