Create Programs & Schedules

To effectively manage your offerings on Communiti, it is important to understand the relationship between a Program and a Schedule. Think of a Program as your master template and a Schedule as the specific dates and times that users can actually book.

Understanding Programs and Schedules

A Program acts as the master template for your offerings. It stores the permanent details—like the description, pricing structure, and waivers—so you don’t have to re-enter them every time you schedule a new session.

Creating a Program

Programs act as the master template for your offerings. It is important to understand which changes will apply to all your sessions and which are simply defaults for the scheduling process.

How to Update or Edit Program Details

Duplicating a program is the fastest way to create a new offering that shares similar details - such as waivers, photos, and descriptions—without starting from scratch. This is especially useful if you are launching a new season or a similar camp with only minor changes to the title or content.

How to Duplicate a Program

Archiving is a great way to keep your Program list clean and organized. If you have programs that are seasonal or no longer in use, you can archive them to hide them from your main list without permanently deleting the data.

How to Archive and Unarchive Programs

As your list of offerings grows, you can use the search and filter tools to quickly find the specific program template you need to edit or schedule.

How to Search for Programs

While a Program is your template, a Session is the actual event on your calendar. This is where you set the specific dates, times, and pricing for your users to book.
