Events and attendance
Event attendance tracking for association meetings and AGMs
Publish an event once and members see it on their calendar. Reminders go out automatically at the times you choose, attendance is recorded on the day or uploaded afterwards, and attendees receive a participation certificate.
What it covers
Event calendar, recurring series, automatic reminders on your schedule, attendance and certificates.
Publish events
Create an event with its dates, venue and details, and publish it for your members.
Calendar of upcoming and past events
A calendar view shows upcoming and past events, and members see upcoming events in their own account.
Recurring event series
Set up a weekly or monthly series once, such as a monthly committee meeting, instead of entering each date by hand.
Reminders on your schedule
Attendees are reminded automatically. Keep the default schedule or set your own rules, such as 3 days before and 1 hour before.
Attendance, marked or uploaded
Record who attended, or upload an attendance sheet afterwards if the register was taken on paper.
Participation certificates
Issue participation certificates to attendees. Members can view or download them from their own account.

How do event reminders work?
When you create an event you choose when reminders go out: the default schedule or your own rules. Attendees receive them automatically, and you can change the timing at any time.
Can we upload attendance that was taken on paper?
Yes. You can record attendance directly or upload an attendance sheet afterwards, so the event record is complete.
Can we set up meetings that repeat?
Yes. Recurring event series cover weekly, monthly and other repeating schedules, so you set the meeting up once.
Can attendees get a certificate?
Yes. Participation certificates are issued to attendees, and members can view or download them from their own account.
