Create Email Reminders

To inform your enrolled students about the live event, you will need to create an email and schedule its delivery.

Here are the steps to follow:

To set up auto reminders via email, click on New Email, and on the pop up you can set the message and other details. The default email body already contains:

• Organization Name :
• User's Name :
• Event Start Date :
• Event End Date :
• Timezone: 

Simply, select the date and time for the auto-reminder and the system would auto-shoot an email for you at the pre-set time and date. 

You can also enable the option ‘send calendar invite’ if you wish to send calendar invites to the registered participants. 

NOTE: 

1. Once you have created an event, you must customize the landing page for your course and publish it. 

2. Reminder emails are sent with 15 mins of buffer time from the scheduled time which means if you have set up a reminder email for 4:00 pm IST, the email triggers can start and end anytime between 3:45 pm to 4:15 pm.
