ILC Sessions Report

The ILC Sessions Report provides details of Sessions and Learners who are enrolled into each Session. You can use this report to perform a variety of actions related to Attendance, Waitlist, and Instructors. Common uses of this report are to:

  • Manage Attendance
  • View Waitlists
  • Enroll Learners 
  • Message Instructors

The ILC Sessions Report is located in the Reports tab on the left side of the Admin Interface. Selecting the report name will redirect you to the ILC Sessions Report page. From here, you can filter results based on a variety of data points. 

Report Tips
  • This report will only display Active User data.
  • Be mindful that opening a report may also bring up a favorite saved layout, or a shared default organizational report layout.
  • You will only see data that you have access to view. For example, data from Learners that an Admin does not have permission to view will not be included in their report.

More information about marking attendance for ILCs can be found in the article here.

Note: If Absent is selected, this is considered as a Completion Status and will mark the Learner as Complete on their Transcripts. If a Completion is not the desired Status, we recommend marking these Learners as Not Complete

If a Session is recurring, the Admin or Instructor for each Session Date will be able to mark if a User attended or not. 

Manage Grades & Attendance

When a single User is selected, new options become available in the Actions menu.
