Courses
The Courses area is where System administrators create and maintain the course catalogue: course definitions, documents, course instances, and session schedules. Customers and applicants browse published instances from Available courses; you prepare everything here before it goes live.
What are courses?
A course is a scheduled educational offering tied to one scheduled service and one subject. Customers buy seats on course instances (a specific run of the course with its own code, dates, language, professional, and price).
| Course type | Description |
|---|---|
| Regular course | Fixed sessions with defined start and end dates. Each instance has individual calendar events. |
| Ongoing course | Recurring weekly (or similar) sessions without a fixed instance end date in the same way. Instances use event groups (day of week + time range) instead of a flat list of dated events. |

Regular course — create event
ADD EVENT opens a side panel with Title, Time zone, Start time, and End time (both must be set before recurrence options appear). Times must fall within the instance start and end dates.
Check Repeatable to create a series of events instead of a single session.
Repeat period
| Value | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Day | One event every day between the start time and the end of the series |
| Week | Events on selected weekdays (see below) |
| Month | Events on a monthly pattern (see below) |
| Year | One event per year on the same calendar date as the start time |
Weekly repeat
When Repeat period is Week, select one or more weekdays (Monday through Sunday). At least one weekday is required.
Monthly repeat
When Repeat period is Month, choose how the day of each month is determined. The options use the Start time you picked—the labels update automatically when you change the start date.
| Option | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly on day N | Same calendar date every month (day number from the start time) | Start on 15 March → events on the 15th of each month |
| Monthly on the nth weekday | Same ordinal weekday every month (e.g. first Monday, third Tuesday) | Start on the first Monday in March → Monthly on the first Monday each month |
| Monthly on the last weekday | The last occurrence of that weekday in each month | Only shown when the start date is already the last such weekday in its month (e.g. last Friday); then repeats on the last Friday of every month |
If the start date is not the last occurrence of its weekday in the month, the last weekday option is hidden.
End of the series
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| On date | Generate events until the selected end date (cannot be after the instance end date) |
| After occurrences | Generate a fixed number of events; the maximum allowed count is calculated from the repeat rules and instance end date |
Click CREATE to generate the events. The same monthly choices are available when editing a recurring event, subject to the same restrictions as delete.
Ongoing course — create event
Defaults to a repeating weekly pattern: Repeat from, Event time (time range), Repeat every (weekday), Repeat until, and Automatically create events for the next year (events for the following calendar year are created at the beginning of December).
For planning ongoing instances, row actions on event groups allow Edit and Delete. For published or finished instances, event group actions are limited.
Regular course — event actions
While the instance is not Finished, each event can be Edited or Deleted (delete disabled if the instance has applications).
Classroom column shows a link to the assigned classroom or custom URL, or a message when none is assigned.
