Events
Feature Overview new feature
Note. This feature only tracks users with a student role in Bulldog Connect.
Events were designed to help staff reach out to specific student populations and encourage them to RSVP for an event. They are also meant to give more clarity into if students RSVP and attend the events.
Open the Event page by opening the Campaigns & Events page and selecting the Events link. To learn more about creating an Event, refer to Creating an Event.
After creating an Event, you track RSVPs and attendance/check-ins through the Events page. The table shows the status of your events, the most recent reminder, the next reminder date, and the number of attendees invited to the event.
Select your Event’s name to open a report with statistics about the event. If you have not sent the invitation, select the name to open the Event creation workflow.
The following metrics are available on the Event detail page.
Recipients.The number of students who were sent an invitation to the event.
RSVP Made. Number of students who have responded to the invitation in any way.
Attended. Number of students who were marked as attended for the event.
Beneath the metrics is a table with three tabs. The first tab, RSVPs Received shows the number of students who have sent an RSVP. The second tab, RSVPs Pending, shows the students who have received invitations but have not responded. The third tab, Attended, shows the students who were marked as attending the event or who checked in via the Event QR code/link.
Any list may be exported as a CSV file by clicking the Export button on the grid.
For the RSVP Received and RSVP Pending tabs, selecting students and opening the Actions menu allows users to mark a student as having attended the event, even if they did not originally RSVP.
