Event Details

Location

The location panel is where you would select whether your event is virtual (e.g., WebEx, ZOOM, GoToMeeting, etc), in-person at a physical location, or hybrid. If an address is entered, the system will auto-generate a map once you publish the event.

If the event is virtual, include the link for registrants to access the event.

If the event is hybrid (both virtual and in-person), provide the virtual link as well as the address of the physical location.

Registration & Payment

Select either “Standard,” “External,” which would utilize an external registration site such as EventBrite, or “None,” if no registration is required.

Select the start and end dates/times for registration. Other options to select:

• Maximum # of registrants (if space/bandwidth is limited)
• Menu selections, if applicable
• Custom registration questions, if needed

Enabling Payment Functionality using Primary Host Concentration banking account

In order to set up payment for an event, registration dates are required. Select “Set up Payment” to show pricing information.

Optional Pricing Levels – Price Restrictions based on Member Grade

Specify who qualifies for a given price level based on their association with IEEE or member grade. Example: You can provide discounted pricing to IEEE members and student members. Registrants will be required to provide their member number to qualify for the discounted price level. The system will use the member number to check the registrant’s member status (active/inactive) and current member grade.

Adding Speakers

Currently, the Speakers panel allows you to add up to 2 speakers. This limit will be increased later in 2023.

Publish the Event

When ready, click “Save & Publish” to publish the event for public view.

The “Manage” page will show the details:
