Before the semester starts, we recommend planning out what your events will look like for the entire semester. This helps you stay accountable to your goals of educating 300 students per semester and registering 30 students!

As you plan for the upcoming semester, we recommend hosting a combination of education and registration events. Here are sample calendars:
