How to Create and Manage an Activity

Creating an Activity

1. Log In to your Navigatr account and go to the Activities section under Content.
2. Create New Activity:
   • Select a badge that will be awarded to participants who attend this activity. Make sure you have the necessary permissions to issue this badge.
   • Provide key details for the activity, including the name, type, and any relevant links (such as a booking or information link).
   • Write a brief description that summarizes the purpose or content of the activity to inform potential attendees.
   • Add skills tags to highlight competencies participants will gain, which can also enhance the activity’s discoverability.
   • Set availability to either open to all users or restricted to a specific audience.
   • Indicate if the activity is in-person, online, or a combination of both. For in-person activities, provide the location details.
   • Specify the date and time for the activity, including start and end times.
   • Optionally, you may upload a cover photo or additional image to visually represent the activity.
   • Include any accessibility information that will help attendees plan for accommodations, such as wheelchair access or baby-changing facilities.
   • Choose relevant industries to categorize the activity and improve its visibility to users interested in those fields.
3. Save and Publish: Once your activity is complete, save it as a draft if it’s not yet ready for publication or publish it to make it available to the target audience.

Alternative Way to Create an Activity

You can also create an activity directly from a badge's admin page. This is useful if you already have a specific badge in mind that you want to award through an activity. To do this, access the admin page of the badge, find the option to issue it, and select the choice to set up an activity. This approach automatically links the badge to the new activity, saving time on setup.

Managing an Activity

1. Edit: Modify an existing activity by updating any of its details.
2. Duplicate: Create a copy of an activity to quickly set up similar or recurring events.
3. Expire or Delete: Choose to expire an activity to keep it in records, or delete it if it’s no longer needed.
