Under events you can view an event or the calendar of event, view and create new events or view and create a new eventnotice.
To create an event fill in the details shown below.
When creating an event you can make it Public or Private. If you make it public you can choose which year level you want to invite or invite them all! Students will be able to see it under their events tab and either accept or decline the invite. You might use this for something like a Careers Expo or a visiting speaker.
More often you would make the event private and invite a group of students.
Again there is more information about inviting groups to events under the Groups/Search tab.
...
Once you have created the event you will have the option to add a group to the event or a single person. If you click "Add Group to Event" you will be asked to choose from groups you have previously created in the group/search section.
Once you add the students you will see the "Invite Manager" where you can edit the message students will receive by email or text telling them they have been invited to an event.
When students receive an email notifying them of an invite to an event, this is what they will see in their email:
The first part is the message that you composed on the "Invite Manager" screen, and the second part ("You have been invited to: ..." etc) is automatically added by us and includes a unique link that allows the student to view the event details and respond to their invite without needing to login to Career Central.
Once you have invited your students you can then create a group of those who are attending in order to message them. You can also make groups of those who declined the invite, did not respond etc...
When you view an event you will see a calendar with all the events you have created. By clicking on an event you can see the details of the event as well as any student who have been invited and whether or not they are attending. You also have the option to add other students to the event.
