The Course Calendar offers an alternative way to view and schedule both class and web courses within your platform.

This area has the same functionality as the other Courses Management areas, but rather than displaying your courses within a DataGrid, courses are shown chronologically in a calendar format instead.

Accessing the Course Calendar

Your Course Calendar is available via the ‘Courses' > 'Calendar’ option from your main navigation on the left of your platform.

Public Link
This is an admin tool that generates a link to the calendar that can be shared with users who don’t have access to the platform. It shows both public and exclusive course dates so it is intended for sharing with other staff members or resources internally to provide visibility to the calendar.

The calendar that is generated is affected by the “Hide sessional head courses” and “Hide sessions of sessional course templates” checkbox default statuses, meaning that if “Hide sessional head courses” is ticked, then sessional head courses will also be hidden in the generated calendar.

You can also put this link in Dashboard using a Web Gadget to show the Calendar in other users' Dashboards, read more about Dashboards.

To generate a public link you can go to Courses > Calendar > Advanced > “Click here to generate public link to calendar...”
