Create Session - Parts Schedule

When creating a session, the first step is to define a part for the session. See Create Session - Parts Schedule - Define Part.

After at least one part is defined for a session, the parts are displayed in the Parts Schedule table. To create an ILT event session, go to ILT > Manage Events & Sessions. Search for the event and in the Options column next to the event, click the View Sessions icon . To create a new session, click the Create New Session link.

Design Note: An updated interface is available for this page, which can be enabled by administrators in Feature Activation Preferences. With the new design, the functionality of the page is unchanged.

The following information is displayed in the Parts Schedule Table:

  • Starts - This is the date and time on which the session part starts.

  • Training Hours - This is the number of training hours that are associated with the session part. This is calculated using the start and end times of the session part. Note: Part breaks are not included in the training hours for the part. For example, if a part has a Start Time of 8:00 AM, an End Time of 5:00 PM, and a Part Break of 30 minutes, then the total training hours for the part is 8.5 hours.
