Event Management

When you install Event Management, two new Objects are created: Event and Participant. The Event Object enables you to create free and paid Events in Client. The Participant Object enables you to identify Object items added to an Event.

Institutions can customize the Event Management feature by including forms to enable students to manage their online participation in events. This can be accomplished using applications such as Forms Builder.
