How to Use the Attendance Monitor

Monitor your audience's engagement throughout your event by sending pop-ups that attendees must click to indicate their attention to the presentation

The Attendance Monitor enables hosts to send pop-ups to attendees, which they must click to indicate that they are engaged and paying attention to the presentation. The number of clicks and pop-ups displayed per attendees are both included in the session's reports, so hosts can pinpoint exactly how engaged each of their attendees were. 

The attendance monitor is a great way to determine who fully understands the content you are presenting, whether it's for continuing education or other certification and credits. Not only are the attendance monitor results available in your analytics and custom reports, but you can also include them as criteria for the certificate of completion.

To create Attendance Monitor pop-ups, visit the webinar dashboard of the session you want to manage. From there, you'll proceed to the webinar dashboard. In the left-hand menu, select Attendance Monitor

Here, you can customize the design, copy and frequency of the pop-ups that appears to attendees. 

  • To activate Attendance Monitor pop-ups, select Enable
  • To add an image to the pop-up, upload an image in the space below, then select Show Image
  • To add text to the pop-up, type it in the free-entry box underneath Pop-Up text
  • To add text to the button attendees must click, enter it underneath Click text.
  • To add text to the confirmation message, type it in the free-entry box underneath Confirmation Message

Next, you'll determine how often the pop-up appears to attendees. Attendance monitor pop-ups are programmed to display randomly to each attendee every so often within a set time interval. So if you want the Attendance Monitor to appear anywhere between 5 and 10 minutes apart for each attendee, then you would set the time interval to a every 5 to 10 minutes. Set your time interval using the slider below. 

By default, these pop-ups remain onscreen for attendees for 60 seconds, but you can change the display time using the box just below the slider.

The Attendance Monitor pop-up should look something like the below when it is presented to attendees. The attendees will have to click the bottom blue button in order to confirm their active attendance and continue with the presentation. 

The attendance monitor results will appear in your analytics and in your custom reports. Look for the attributes Number of Attendance Monitor Pop-ups Shown and Number of Attendance Monitor Pop-ups Clicked.
