COURSE RELEASE – onBoard and onMessage: Event Registration.

 

One look at your school’s calendar will surely confirm that you are constantly planning and hosting a variety of events. And we’re curious – what events do you manage with the Event Registration features in onBoard and onMessage?

 


There’s no denying that your school’s events are a central and integral part of campus and community life. Among other things, events help you build and foster relationships, showcase the accomplishments of your constituents, and raise money for the support and advancement of your school.


With so many events, it is inevitable that they will have different requirements. Some events are public, while others are for a specific constituency; some events can have an unlimited number of attendees, while others have a maximum; some events are free, while others require payment. Regardless of the type of event or its specifications, the Event Registration features in onBoard and onMessage allow the different offices at your school to create custom registration forms for the countless events they hold each year.


We know that you use Event Registration in onBoard and onMessage for events like open houses, golf tournaments, and alumni reunions. But we want to know what else! Use the Comments section below to share with us, and your peers, the kinds of events you manage using Event Registration.

We use it for World Language and Math Placement Tests for our incoming Freshman.  We also used it to sign up to take the HSPT.
