Register for an Event

 

Clicking on the I will attend button under an event post will subscribe you to that event, add you to the attendees list, and send you a reminder 30 minutes before the event starts.

Clicking on the Yes | No | Maybe buttons, available on the event page, offer the same functionality. 

 

Use the Add to Calendar option to download an ICS file and create an event notification on your calendar.

Please Note: 'I will attend' does not automatically register you for an event. If the event has a registration requirement (ex: Zoom registration link), make sure to click on that link and pre-register to avoid last-minute registration on the day of the event.

 

Commenting and Kudos 

 

You can use the Kudos button if you like an event.  Commenting on events is also available to ask any questions related to the event, provide feedback, or request clarifications after the event has ended.  Commenting on an event will subscribe you to the event and you will receive notifications of discussions and updates to the event.
