- To be able to track and view participation on a myUMBC event, you must either be the admin of a group or the creator of that event.
- Only Username, Campus ID, EMPL ID, or LIMS ID separated by commas or whitespace can be entered.
Participation tracking is a myUMBC events feature that allows you to enter data on event participants to associate them with the event. This is a feature visible only to event creators or group administrators - it is not visible to the public or other attendees of the event.
Why track participation?
- Historical record - be able to know who showed up to your event.
- Analytics - event participation data is loaded into REX on a nightly basis and could be used in development of future reporting.
How do I track participation?
To upload participants, you must either be the admin of a group or the creator of an event. If neither, you will not be able to track participation.
You need have 1 of 4 potential pieces of information about a person:
- UMBC Username/Email - ex. jsmith
- Campus ID - ex. AB12345
PeopleSoft EMPL ID - ex. 3000123456
LIMS ID - Barcode on the front of your red card, ex. 21234567890123
Any data can then either be typed or pasted in bulk into the textbox, provided that it's separated by either commas or spaces.
