Scenario

As an admin or content owner, you want particular team members to attend an event.

Solution

Add someone as an attendee to the event, following these steps:

  1. Access the event you want to add attendees to.

  2. Open the context menu (button with three dots) and select Manage Attendance.
    A dialog opens with all current attendees listed.

  3. Click Add Attendees.
    The Enroll to dialog opens.

  4. Start typing the name of the person you want to add as an attendee.
    Possible matches appear.

  5. Select the person you want to add as an attendee.

  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to add as many attendees as you wish.
    If enrolling people online and in-person, add a group of attendees for each enrollment method separately.

  7. Optionally, configure the Force options:

    • Force enroll people - automatically raises the enrollment capacity to enroll selected people, bypassing the waitlist if applicable

    • Force check in people - automatically checks selected people into the event upon enrollment

  8. Select an enrollment method for the people selected.

    • The Enroll option with the map location icon enrolls selected people to the in-person version of the event or office hour session.

    • The Enroll option with the WiFi signal icon enrolls selected people to the online version of the event or office hour session.


    The selected people appear in the list of attendees for the event.
    Added attendees see the event their My Events page.

Adding attendees in bulk

If you have a lot of people (or groups) you want to add to a scheduled event, you can avoid repeating the process above an unreasonable amount by going to the Everyone list in the Enroll to dialog.

From here, click Enroll for individuals and Force Enroll for groups to enroll a large number of people quickly.

Attendance v. assignments

You can add attendees to scheduled events, but you assign event types, tracks, courses, videos, and articles. Find out more about how to do content assignments.
