In order to add Non-Teaching Events to your Teachworks calendar, you can follow the steps below:

  1. Click on "Calendar" and then click on "Add Other Events".

  2. In the "Event is for" field, choose one of the following options:

    • Everyone - Select this option if you'd like to make the Non-Teaching Event for all students, families and employees.

    • Students & Families - Select this option if you'd like to make the Non-Teaching Event for all students and families.

    • All Employees - Select this option if you'd like to make the Non-Teaching Event for all employees.

    • Selected Employees - Select this option to make the Non-Teaching Event for specific employees.

  3. In the "Location" field, select the location where the Non-Teaching Event is going to take place.

  4. In the "Title" field, enter the text that you want to appear on the Non-Teaching Event when it's displayed on the calendar.

  5. Enter a description using the "Description" field if necessary.

  6. If the event is for a group and not an individual, you can make it an all day event by checking the "All Day" box.

  7. Select the date and time for the Non-Teaching Event using the "Start" and "End" fields.

  8. If the Non-Teaching Event repeats, check the "Repeat" box and select your repeat settings on the "Repeat Settings" form.

  9. Submit the form.

NOTE: Selecting "Everyone" or "All Employees" does not have any affect on teacher availability. If you'd like to block off the availability of your teachers, use the "Selected Employees" option.

NOTE: Teachers are only able to schedule Non-Teaching Events for themselves.

If you've already added a Non-Teaching Event and would like more information about editing the event, you can find a detailed guide here: Editing Non-Teaching Events.
