Lesson Six – Creating Events
Creating events is very easy and can be a great way to collate a bunch of opportunities that are related to a specific occasion, e.g. a festival. This will make the opportunities easier for your volunteers to find and easier for providers to manage.
You can find out more about how we’ve previously helped organise large events in this blog post!
Task
Create an event and add at least one opportunity to it.
The Process
First we’ll create the event.
Step One
Go to ‘Opportunities & Providers’.
Step Two
Click ‘Events’.
Step Three
Fill in the necessary fields and click ‘Add’.
Next, we can either create a new opportunity to be part of the event, or add an existing opportunity to it.
Creating an opportunity as part of an event
Step One
Go to ‘Opportunities and Providers’.
Step Two
Click ‘Create Opportunity’.

Fill in all fields until you reach the boxes below. Specify that the Opportunity is part of an Event and select the correct event.
Step Four
Finish creating the opportunity as usual.
Adding an existing opportunity to an event
Step One
Go to ‘Opportunities and Providers’.
Step Two
Click ‘Opportunities’.
Step Three
Find the opportunity you wish to add and click on it.
