Appointment Scheduling

Achieve’s two-way sync feature links your Outlook or Google Calendar in real-time which helps staff to manage their workday efficiently, enabling them to have more time to empower their students and increase student success.

Your students see when you are busy on your calendar so that they can make appointments based on your availability. Students automatically receive personalized notifications (email and text messages), reminders (email and text messages), and calendar invites for any appointments they make.

Within Achieve, you can hit the radio button in appointment type and set it to walk-in.

Within Outlook and Google Calendar, for #Tagged# subjects, add a "-0" within the hash tag but after the subject to create a walk-in. Example: To make a walk-in/drop-in appointment with a subject #ADV#, you'd change the hash tagged subject to #ADV-0#.

Within Achieve, you can hit the radio button in appointment type and set it to multiple. Then, you can set a max limit on the number of students allowed for the group appointment.

Within Outlook and Google Calendar, for #Tagged# subjects add a "-max" where max is the maximum size of the group within the hashtag but after the subject to create a group appointment.

Example: To make a group appointment with 20 students with a subject #ADV#, change the hash tagged subject to #ADV-20#.

Schedule Appointment

To schedule availability across multiple appointment types in Achieve, you can select the types of appointments you wish to schedule with the "include selected programs within the same time blocks" drop-down.

To schedule availability across multiple appointment types in Outlook or Google Calendar, you must concatenate multiple hash tagged subjects together.
