Create a simple employee training registration form

The first step in creating a training program is to setup a registration form that is easy to navigate. Activity Messenger simplifies this process with customizable templates with branded visual elements.

• Use Canva for Branding: Customize the aesthetics of your form to match your organization’s branding and create a consistent user experience by using Canva‘s design features within Activity Messenger.
• Customize Form Fields: Customize fields such as course training description, pricing, and location to tailor the form to the specifics of your training. This level of detail ensures that attendees have all the information they need ahead of time.

Enhanced Scheduling Options

Flexibility in scheduling is critical to accommodate varying participant availability and training formats.

Activity Messenger’s scheduling feature supports this need by:

• Offering Multiple Session Options: Use the platform to easily manage these different schedules and participant lists by designing your training programs to include single or multiple sessions.
• Planning for Different Training Types: Whether it’s an intensive workshop or an extended course, the platform’s scheduling flexibility is the key to effective planning.

You can do this by setting a specific registration rule based on the type of training at the form level from the following options

1. Register to all events or occurrences
2. Must pick only one occurrence
3. Can pick multiple occurrences

Automated Reminders for internal trainings

Implement an automated reminder system to maximize attendance and ensure participants and trainers are prepared.

Activity Messenger facilitates this with:
