Live session later replaced with recording

Instructor led trainings are mapped as events in EduBrite, events can be offered as part of a course session. This article covers a commonly used scenario - A live event is offered as part of a course session and users subscribe to event to attend live training, Once event is over that event's recording is uploaded in that course and new users can enroll into course session to access event recording. This scenario can be setup by following main steps -

  1. Setup for Future Event
    • Create a course ( No course content is needed) and Create course session
    • Create event within course session ( Events can be created using integration with multiple online Conferencing Tool )
    • Users can self enroll in event.
  2. Post Event Actions -
  • Event recording can be uploaded in the course as a lesson.
  • Course session is made available for enrollment ( Change AccessType as paid)
  • New users can enroll in CS and access recording.

In this scenario few other things can be added as awarding course certificate to users those either attended live training or watched recorded training. A survey can be added in the course that can be made available to users after live training is over.
