The Shared Calendar Module of the Extension Solution allows for the setting up of web-based calendars that hold details of Extension and county events. This provides agents and customers with a single point of reference that they can visit to find information on training sessions, meetings, classes, councils and other events of interest. Each extension county is provided with its own Events calendar that it can share with other individual counties or that can be displayed on the global calendar.

Features

• Integration
  The Shared Calendar Module easily integrates into the Collaborative Workspaces Module, Knowledge Repository Module, eLearning Module and Extension & individual Portals. Thus, extension employees, partners and customers can keep up-to-date on both local and state-wide events.
• Search Feature
  The search feature allows extension customers to find information on Extension events by conducting a basic search for event details using keywords. More advanced search features are also supported whereby they can search for an event by its name, location, keyword and/or the audience.
• Send Event Notifications
  Email notifications can be sent to specified agents and customers about upcoming events.
• Intuitive User Interface
  The user interface offers different views of the calendar: daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. On each view, the events are highlighted using color coding or bolded links. The events management page also provides a detailed interface for specifying the event title, location, schedule, and event details.
• Sharing Permissions
  The Extension and counties can determine the permissions to grant to other counties and users. Some counties can be granted view-only access, while other counties can have access to make or edit entries in the calendar.
