Creating Seminars

Seminars in Nickels provide the superior structure for the learning modules. In this context the Nickels user communication is also available.

Creating new seminars is very simple in principle. Actually, beside managers also tutors are allowed to create seminars (see User Types for more information). In general, there are two possibilities to create learning modules in Nickels (A and B).

A brief step-by-step introduction provides the main information to guide you through the creation process:

A. Creating new seminars in Nickels

1. Log into your Nickels account
2. Switch to 'Seminars' on the administration bar.

3. Click on the button 'Create new seminar'

4. Next step is to choose a language and assign a titel. A description is optional. Then click 'Create seminar'.
5. Now you can edit the created seminar
   -> 'Open seminar' or 'Edit' in the administration list (see fig. 2), for further information about compiling seminars click here.
6. Congratulations! You have created your first seminar!

B. The alternative: let the manager do this job for you!

Hence, for creating a new seminar you may contact the manager by sending the seminar's title and your login name, as well as a list of additional tutors (if needed). Your seminar will be created as soon as possible.
