Events & Attendance
Easily manage events and track attendance to keep yourself organized and informed. An interactive calendar allows you to drag and drop single, multi-day, and repeating events, and attendance tools allow you to easily check people in and create attendance reports after your events.
Events
Whether it’s a weekly repeating event or one-time special event, it’s useful to be able to take attendance, allow online registration, and share your events. You can use our calendar to view and manage events by day, week, or month.
Standard Sign-In℠
This feature is designed to be user-friendly yet secure. Attendance through our Standard Sign-In℠ is our most popular attendance tool. Record attendance for individuals or whole families in a matter of seconds. Add new attendees right from the sign-in screen, and Ministry Tracker will generate a list for follow-up. Use the attendance information to view statistics about your events so you can plan better for the future if need be.
Manual Attendance
For instances where internet is unavailable, we offer manual attendance sheets that you can print off for specific groups, including staff and volunteers. Use the manual event attendance to reconcile the data in Ministry Tracker at a later time.
Registration
Ministry Tracker lets members register for upcoming events and make payments towards those events through the member portal. Using the registration manager, you can designate the number of spaces available for an event, communicate with people that have registered, and get a payment summary to see how much is due per individual for an event.
