Expiration

• Select one of the following three options:

To add a prerequisite, click on + Add a group. Then, you select the prerequisites for your clinics from the drop-down list and choose whether they are All mandatory or At least one mandatory.

 You can select multiple qualifications and indicate them as a prerequisite

• At least one mandatory: This option allows you to combine several qualifications, including those considered equivalencies; your participants must have at least one of them to register.

• All Mandatory: This option allows you to select one or more qualifications; your participants must have all of them to register.

Attendees

The attendee's section allows you to manage who can participate in your clinic and define different parameters such as the number of attendees, their age, the waiting list, and if the participant needs valid background checks.

Attendees Types

Please leave the Attendee Type blank if this clinic is open to participants without a member type.

Attendees Requirements

Indicate the minimum and maximum number of participants for your clinic. If you don't add a minimum or maximum number, your clinic's capacity will be unlimited.

Age Requirements

Indicate the minimum and maximum age for participants to register for your clinic. If you don't specify a minimum or maximum age, all participants can register, regardless of age.

Waiting List

If you have added a maximum number of participants, you can add a waiting list. This option will allow members who wish to participate in this clinic to register on a waiting list even though it is fully booked. You can then add them as participants if you increase the number of participants in your clinic or if another participant cancels.

Background Checks

By selecting this option, all participants registered for this clinic must have a valid background check before registration.

Description

In addition, if Hockey Canada has defined a description for this qualification, it will be added above your description when the participant registers online.

In this section, you can build the session plan for our clinic. You can add a session by clicking on one of the +Add a session buttons, as indicated by the red arrows.

Once you have clicked on +Add Session, a new window will appear to create your sessions.

You must first select the language in which the clinic is offered at the top right.

You can click Next to proceed to step 3.

Step 3 - Communications

The communications section is broken down into three sections:

1. Questionnaires

2. Registration communication

3. Confirmation email

Questionnaires

In this section, you can attach any terms and conditions, questionnaires, and waivers for your clinic. These all should be created in the catalog section, which you can quickly view by clicking here.

The Terms and Conditions are mandatory; the questionnaire and the waivers are optional.

• Terms and Conditions: this is usually your refund policy or the conditions of participation in your clinic. Participants must check that they accept the payment conditions during the online registration.

• Questionnaire: Adding a questionnaire with specific questions may be helpful in obtaining more information about participants. The participant will have to answer the questions during the registration process. You also have the option of making your questions mandatory.

  • For example, if you're offering tracksuits to your participants, you could ask them for the size they'd like; if dinner is included with multiple choices, you could ask them for their choice of menu, etc.

  • You can export questionnaire responses by going to the Report menu and selecting the Questionnaire Report. Questions are also displayed in the Participant tab of your clinic; click on a participant to open the side panel and select the Questionnaire tab.

• Waivers: you can add exemptions to your clinic. Exemptions enable you to obtain a participant's agreement or disagreement on a specific situation, rules, or any other element associated with the risk of the activity.

  • Hockey Canada and your branch create many exemptions, so we suggest you contact them to ensure you don't ask the same question twice.

  • You could add, for example, a waiver on a coach's code of ethics if the clinic is for a coach or a waiver on any of your organization's rules.

  • You can export responses to waivers by going to the Report menu and selecting the Waivers report. Waiver signatures will also be displayed in the Participant tab of your clinic; click on a participant to open the side panel and select the Details tab. Waivers are displayed at the bottom of this page.

Registration Confirmation

The registration confirmation section is where you can add a text confirming the member's registration for the clinic. This message will be displayed at the end of the member's registration process. This text is mandatory, and you have various formatting options. It is also possible to add an attachment to the message.

Confirmation Email

In the confirmation email section, you can add a mandatory message that the member will receive by email after completing their clinic registration. You have various formatting options, and you can also add an attachment to the message.

For example, an attachment can be used to add a PDF file of a practical exam the participant has to take or a PDF file of a survey that the participant can fill in at the end of the clinic.

You can click Next to proceed to step 4.

Step 4 - Payment Option(s)

The payment options section is broken down into two sections:

1. Clinic Items

2. Payment methods

Clinic Items

In this section, you can add clinic items (expenses related to your clinic). These expenses must be added to your clinic. Add clinic items by clicking the +Add buttons, as the red arrows indicate.

You can also add optional fees, but you must add at least one of the mandatory clinic fees.

The registration fee for a clinic could be a mandatory clinic fee.

You can add optional clinic items such as lunch or the purchase of a sweater.

Creating your clinic articles in advance in the Catalog menu is also possible by selecting Clinic Items.

If your clinic is free and no fees apply, you can create a $0 item, but you must make it mandatory.

Once you have clicked the +Add button, another window will open. In this window, you can choose your options from the drop-down list. There is also a checkbox to make these items mandatory.

To create a new clinic item, you can click on Create and add an item. You can make the item mandatory and indicate that taxes will be applied. 

Payment Methods

This section allows you to add the payment methods you wish to accept. The drop-down list is connected to your merchant account, and you can check the boxes to determine which manual payment methods will be accepted.

You must select at least one payment method, even if your clinic is free and the amount is $0.00.

When finished, click Next to proceed to step 5.

Step 5 - Review

The final step is to review all the information for your clinic.

If you need to make any changes, click the blue edit button in the upper right corner of each section.

 Once you have reviewed the clinic information, click the Create Clinic button at the bottom of the page. Your clinic will be created as a draft, and you must make it active for members to register.
