For instructors: taking attendance
A quick guide for instructors to mark attendance during or right after class, including walk-ins and make-up credits.
Updated November 1, 2026
- Open Programs › Attendance, or click your class on the Schedule.
- Pick the class and date to open its roster.
- Mark each student Present, Late, Absent or Excused. If everyone came, use All present.
- Tap Save attendance. Nothing is saved until you tap it. If you try to leave the page first, it asks whether to save.
Students you leave unmarked stay "Unmarked". They aren't marked absent automatically.
Simple mode: tap a name to mark them here, and tap again to undo.
Walk-ins: under Add a walk-in (a student not on this roster), type at least 2 letters of the name and tap Add. This finds existing students only. Send new visitors to the front desk.
Make-ups: if a student has banked make-up credits, use Use credit on their row.
Absences and credits: if a student on a plan with a class limit is marked Absent, they get a make-up credit automatically. It lasts 30 days.
