Email Learners Registered for Instructor-Led Training

Email can be an effective way of reaching those learners who are registered and planning to attend your ILT session. Emailing leaners is in addition to email that is triggered automatically from BuckeyeLearn. 

As a best practice, sending email users should be used judiciously for critical reminders or to answer common questions related to that session. 

 

Critical Note:

If you find that additional information or detail is needed in the event or session, please contact your ILT or OU Administrator.  Adding helpful information to the session or event may reduce the need to send additional emails.

 For additional information, take the Creating and Managing Instructor-Led Training online course, or visit Cornerstone's online help.
