How to add a student (including new starts)
Description:
You can add a student via the Sales page or the Student Planning page. Both options will save the information into the Student Planning table. Adding student numbers or editing start dates will automatically update the hours to be flown and Instructor and Aircraft resources required.
Prior to the start of the course Aeroplanned will calculate hours and resources required based on the ''Planned no of students''. Once the course has started Aeroplanned will automatically read from the ''Enrolled no. of students'' to calculate hours and resources required.
Steps:
- Click the ‘Add course’ button.
- Enter the Cohort name, this is a handy way to allow you to search for a group of students, usually who all start on the same date
- Select the Syllabus or Training Pattern from the drop down
- Student Name: if unknow you can write ''TBC''
- ID: enter student ID (optional), this should match what you have in your TMS if you have one
- Planned no. of students: enter the number of students you are planning to start on the course
- Enrolled no. of students: enter the number of students who are confirmed as starting, or '0' if no one is confirmed.
- Enter the start date of the course
- Click ''Add Course''
If the course is in the future it will now be sitting under the ''Sales'' filter on the Course planning table. If the course start date is in the past it will be under the ''In training'' filter.
