At CE-Go, we understand that effective attendance management is a crucial aspect of event success, especially when offering continuing education (CE) credits as event organizers. That's why we’ve developed versatile and reliable attendance tracking solutions to meet your event’s unique needs. Whether you're hosting a small in-person seminar or a large-scale conference, we have the right solution to ensure accurate and seamless attendance management.
Let’s dive into the features of our attendance tracking options and discover the perfect fit for your next event.
Manual attendance tracking is a straightforward and flexible approach, where event organizers manually check attendees in and out of sessions. This method offers a personal touch and works well for smaller in-person events where a human presence enhances the attendee experience.
Best for: Smaller events or those that require a personal touch, such as intimate workshops or networking gatherings. Manual tracking is ideal when simplicity and human interaction are key elements of the event.
Attendee Self-Select allows participants to self-report their own attendance status. Attendees can manually select whether they’ve attended a session, providing real-time updates to organizers. This method empowers attendees to track their participation independently.
Best for: Multi-session events where organizers want to give attendees more autonomy. It’s perfect for workshops or breakout sessions where attendees move between sessions and are actively engaged in their experience.
QR Code or Badge Scanning is a fast and efficient way to manage attendance, particularly at larger events. Using QR codes or badges, event staff can quickly check attendees in and out of sessions with just a scan. This method reduces administrative workload while ensuring data accuracy. It’s also adaptable to various event formats, from in-person conferences to hybrid gatherings.
Best for: Large-scale events where speed and efficiency are critical. Scanning works well for conferences or any event with a significant number of participants needing quick, seamless check-ins with minimal wait times.
Word Verification offers a unique way to track not just attendance but engagement. During the event, a specific word or code is displayed to participants, who must input it to confirm their participation. This method is particularly useful for in-person or hybrid events, ensuring that attendees are present and attentive.
Best for: In-person or hybrid events where engagement is key, such as continuing education conventions, in-person workshops, or training sessions. Word Verification adds an extra layer of accountability to ensure attendees are actively involved.
Choosing the right attendance tracking method depends on the size and structure of your event, as well as the level of engagement you want to foster. Whether you prefer Manual Tracking, Attendee Self-Select, Scanning, or Word Verification, CE-Go has you covered.
