Update Trainer's working days and hours

Learn how to set a Trainer’s weekly available working days and hours

Setting Trainer availability is an important step in supporting your Course scheduling processes. By specifying the standard weekly days and hours that your Trainers are available to lead Courses, you can avoid clashes and ensure your Trainers aren’t assigned to Courses outside their regular working times. This is especially useful if, for example, a Trainer is only available until 4 pm each day, or they do not work on Tuesdays.

Please note that these settings are to define your Trainer’s standard week, if you’re using Exchange Calendar or Google Calendar integrations, you can additionally sync their day-by-day availability directly with your Resource Calendar to keep everything in one place!

Remember, if a Trainer has no standard restrictions on their availability (i.e., they’re available every day and time as needed), you don’t need to follow this process.
