### The Activity Scheduler Page

After you have [**accessed the Activity Scheduler page**](/doc/how-to-access-the-activity-scheduler-l5XKZ3pYK5), continue with the following steps to **add new events** to your selected Activity:

1. On the **Activity Scheduler** page, select the **Add new event** button.  
   The **Scheduling (Timeslots)** page opens.
2. Name your new event in the **Title** field.
3. Select the mini **calendar icon** of the *Start of the event* field to choose the event's start date.![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/6c0da235-ff99-49fd-81af-d32f613692dd/bc3fc41f-239f-49fb-9ffc-277237537236/76910704.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=14687a8c00a1c2be5d6238a87f8e640905dfbd02b14c7ce93fcf7caa99849527&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject)  
4. **Click on a date** in the calendar to select a day for the current month.

   
   1. Adjust the hours and minutes with the horizontal sliders at the bottom.  
      Click *Now* to jump to the current time.

      
:::warning
      **Important**

      When setting the hour, be aware of the AM/PM periods.  
        
      **==AM-PM Switch==** 

      A **smooth switching between AM and PM** in the **date picker helps the calendar's user experience**. The Timepicker add-on is included when you need to set hours or minutes.

      **⬆️** Up arrow:  
      Clock: 9AM, 10AM, 11AM, → 12PM, 1PM, 2PM, ...  
      or  
      Clock: 10PM, 11PM, → 12AM, 1AM, 2AM, ...  
      Minutes: 57, 58, 59, → 0, 1, 2, ...

      
      If the setting is **24H**:  
      **⬆️** Up arrow:  
      Clock: 22, 23, → 0, 1, 2, ...  
      Minutes: 57, 58, 59, → 0, 1, 2, …

      :::

      
:::success
      You can switch to a 24-hour format by navigating to the [System settings](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/system-manager-ar9EDnlVcL) page. 

      :::
   2. When you are finished, click on *Close*.  
      The calendar pop-up closes, and your new date setup is saved in the *Start of the event* field.
   3. If needed, set the duration using the **Duration** slider.  
      After you have created every [**Timeslot**](/doc/timeslot-creation-kNvVKgpkNE) of the event, the duration will be calculated automatically.  
5. Use the **Available** drop-down menu to select a **learner subgroup** to which the event is available or leave it accessible for the **Entire Learner Group.**  
6. Choose a preset **event** **template** or leave the default **Custom** template selection to create a new one.

   

### Event Templates


:::warning
**Note**

If an [**event template**](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/how-to-add-new-events-in-activity-scheduler-Nnd8NOn2DC#:\~:text=Scheduling%20(Timeslots)%20page.-,Event%20templates,-can%20be%20saved) is used, **timeslots and rounds from the chosen template will be applied** to the event.  
New timeslots and rounds must be set up manually if the **Template field** is set to Custom.

:::

* If you want to use an existing event template, select the preset template from the **Template** drop-down and click **Save**.   
   You will be redirected to the **Activity Scheduler** page. 
* If you don't have an existing event template you would use, **create a custom event template**.
* Click on the [**Create Timeslots**](/doc/c876b2f8-5a02-40c4-a527-b7b944ea4e31) button.


:::warning
This step is mandatory if you create a scheduled event for the first time.

### Creating Timeslots

The *Add Timeslots* tab appears at the bottom while you remain on the **Scheduling (Timeslots)** page.

:::info
**Event templates** can be saved by using the *Save as Template* button and entering a template name in the pop-up at the top of the same page.

:::warning
**Important**

Events can also be [**created**](/doc/managing-events-gKZWbNsAty) via the [**Calendar**](/doc/calendar-module-xtpJ2cbfqf) module, but creating timeslots and assigning participants to the timeslots can only be completed via **Advanced Scheduling**.
