Adding events to eyengage
eyengage makes it easier to plan activities with parents and employees. By using Events, you can post about an upcoming activity—including a description, date, and time—and get a direct response from your members about their availability.
Creating an event
- In the top right, click Create New > Event.
- Beside Audience in the top right, choose whether this post is for Parents, Employees, or All.
- Beside Sharing To in the top left, choose who you want to share the post to between Nursery, Room, and Tags, then use the field below Sharing To to select which ones. Your options will be populated using data from employee and child profiles.

- Enter the location of the event into Location Address.

to remove a field. Your event post must contain at least one response option.

Add Media field, click on the box to upload documents, pictures, or videos.
