Conference Tracker

"We used a manual process for tracking attendees prior to discovering Conference Tracker. When an attendee entered the classroom, the proctor checked his/her official government photo ID. The attendee printed and signed their name on a sign-in sheet which included the sign-in time. When they exited the classroom the attendee signed the sign-out sheet and recorded the time. Each sheet contained the course title, room, class time, date, presenter’s name and the proctor’s name. These sheets were forwarded to the agent in charge of validation of the Continuing Education Units. This system worked very well but required some amount of staff time by the agent in charge of validation of the Continuing Education Units to verify the signatures and number of hours. Conference Tracker decreased the amount of time required to perform the manual process. Conference Tracker was selected because the Board of Examiners required electronic scanning of the attendees as they entered and exited the classrooms."

"If you're looking for a product that is easy to use, that allows real-time tracking, the ability to customize and print registrations, the ability to see sessions that are hot versus not with post conference analytics for planning subsequent years' events, this is the software package."

"Before Conference Tracker, we simply used paper/pen and had our attendees sign the sign-in sheet when they entered a session and when they left. Additionally, at the end of each of our sessions at our Annual Conference, attendees had to wait and have the presenter/moderator sign a completion form to verify that they attended. By having Conference Tracker, it has eliminated a lot of time consuming process for our attendees. A simple swipe in and out and we know what time an attendee arrived, when they left and less hassle of proving that they attended a session. With Conference Tracker, we are also able to compile reports that we previously were never able to do. Reports that allowed us to pull attendee rosters for each sessions easily, how long the attendees stayed in a session, which sessions were most popular and as a side benefit for our Annual Conference it gave us some security so that non-registered people would not be able to received credit that they didn’t pay for."
