How to link events to a course

Overview

As an admin, you may want to link events to a course so they become part of the course curriculum, allowing students to RSVP to all associated events in one go. This saved you the time of creating different lessons for different events.

The event RSVP will be tracked in the activity of the student for the course.

Note: Students enrolled in the course will only see the linked events on the lecture page while taking the lesson if they have access to those events. If they don't have access, the lesson will appear empty, without any event details.

1. Create an event if you do not have one created yet. Here is a guide on how to.

2. If you already have events in your community, then navigate to the events dashboard and select the preferred PUBLISHED event

   

3. Click on the event name to open the details of the event, then click on the ‘edit event’ button and scroll to the Event options section.

   

4. Locate the Link event to a course subsection, search for published courses from the dropdown, and select the preferred one.

   

5. Click the ‘Save’ button to update the changes

   

6. Navigate to the course, and create an ‘Event RSVP’ type lesson, and the lesson will be auto-populated with the linked courses.

   1. Navigate to the course

   3. The lesson will be auto-populated with the events

7. This is how the events will appear on the event RSVP lesson on the lecture page while the student is taking the course.
