Training - Accessing the Calendar & Overview

Accessing the Calendar

You can go to the event calendar using our short link: eicc.edu/AddEvent

Once logged in, you can access the calendar by clicking on Add-Ons in the top navigation and selecting Calendar from the drop-down options.

This will bring you to the Calendar All Events page. The left-hand navigation you have options for:

  • Overview – Calendar view of all the calendars you have access to are selected.
  • All Events – all events you have access to listed out.
  • Pending Approval - list of events that are pending your approval.
  • Calendars - listing of all the calendars you have access to, with checkbox to toggle view of the calendar events on/off.

The Overview option shows the calendar events on a monthly calendar grid.

The All Events option shows all the events as a list by month.

In both of these views, you have several ways to sort and filter calendar events, and move between different months, in the toolbar.

Filtering by:

  •  Featured: shows all events that are set as 'featured' and display a yellow star
  • Organizer: shows all events that are set up with the selected organizer
  • Category: shows all events that have been tagged with a specific Category
  • Status: shows all events that are Cancelled or Postponed based on your selection

By default the view will always load into the current month. To move to past or future months you can use the calendar arrows.

The drop down arrow before the month will display a date picker, you can use this to quickly select another month in the year, or skip years, using the arrows.

You can also use the back and forth arrows around the calendar icon to move back or ahead by one month.
