In our past roles as instructors, one of the things we wanted most was some way to automate sign-in sheets and attendance reports for instructor-led training administration.
First, we had to cajole managers into providing staff for handling sign-ins and attendance monitoring. Then, we created and duplicated attendance rosters, but registrations seemed always to change right after we finished the paperwork.
Then there was the set-up to direct and control traffic to the registration desk. If we were required to allow walk-in registrations, it got even crazier. When we needed to be getting our thoughts in order, testing equipment, and arranging instructional aids, we often got called in to deal with a registration issue.
Reports…what reports? By the time we got reports done, nobody cared.
