Multiple Providers - Create Session Options - Parts Schedule

Session options can be added to parent sessions, enabling administrators to create virtual and onsite versions of the same session to provide users with options about how they would like to attend the session. This is a valuable tool for organizations that have users at multiple sites who are required to attend the same training. By having virtual and onsite options, all of an organization's users can complete the required training whether they are at a physical location for the training or attending a virtual session.

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.

To create session options for the primary vendor session, click the <Vendor Name> Session Option icon on the Sessions page.

To create session options for the secondary vendor session, click the <Vendor Name> Session Option icon on the Sessions page. Note: The icons only appear once a parent session is created.
