Selling courses just got simpler: introducing LearnDash + The Events Calendar integration
We're excited to announce a new integration with The Events Calendar that makes it easy to sync your courses with events. This helps folks attending your live events hop right into your courses, too.
One of the best and highly-requested use cases for this integration is an automatic sign-up for courses after people register for events. Here are a few examples of how this looks:
Scenario 1
A live business seminar is taking place downtown. Upon event registration, users are also enrolled in an existing online course that covers related material. Organizers advertise the free course incentive on their registration page as a marketing initiative to grow seminar attendees.
Pharmacy techs host a live seminar in Houston. The event also gives them an opportunity to receive CE (continuing education) credits, which are required annually to renew their license. However, students need to complete a corresponding exam to get credit. The seminar host creates a LearnDash course that includes the exam and links it to the seminar registration on the event website. Once students register for the event, they are automatically enrolled in the course and can take the exam when they’re ready.
A choir master is hosting a live recording session in London, but singers are located all over the United Kingdom. To prepare for the live session, they would like the vocalists to have learned their parts beforehand. As the vocalists RSVP for the recording session, they’re enrolled in a LearnDash course where the director has uploaded recorded lessons for each vocal part. This ensures that by the time everyone comes together, the sopranos, altos, and tenors have all listened and are prepared for the live session.
