SA - Building Programs & Applications
Redirecting ...
The morning workshop will focus on building programs and applications. The afternoon session (Managing Applications for Beginners) will build off of content covered in the morning workshop, but attendees can choose to attend one session or both.
This workshop, while for beginners, will assume attendees are already familiar with some of the main Terra Dotta building blocks: locations, terms, program parameters, applicant parameters, question items and the application statuses/phases. Attendees should understand the basic functionality of these items and how to build/edit them. Attendees who are not yet familiar with these topics can click the links above to read Knowledgebase articles and view videos. Terra Dotta will also host a pre-workshop webinar for registered attendees to explain and demonstrate these topics. Webinar information will be sent to registered workshop attendees closer to the conference event. No other prior knowledge is required.
This workshop will be a mixture of lecture, demonstration, and hands-on practice. During the lecture/demo sections, material will be covered in an intensive-format learning environment, so attendees should bring energy and enthusiasm for a fast-paced and fun workshop. During the hands-on sections, Terra Dotta staff will be actively involved with participants to answer questions and assist in a group setting as participants practice with a particular software feature or skill.
During the workshop, participants will receive a comprehensive list of relevant Knowledgebase articles to take away for future use and will be given suggestions for conference sessions that will enhance what they are learning about a particular topic.
Participants should bring their laptop and be ready to actively work on their own site – via their sandbox site. This is a hands-on workshop!

Time: 8:00am - 12:00pm
