In the left section we can first select the type of events we want to see:

You can then filter them by events:
Type, depending on the type of event we can filter the events in:
- Online (training actions of the following types are shown: Scorm|Tincan, Link, File and Video), virtual and face-to-face.
- Virtual: The following training actions are shown: Videoconference, External Videoconference, Exercise and Performance Evaluation.
- Face-to-face: Training actions of the Face-to-face type are shown.
Registration, this filter will show the events according to whether the student is registered or not.
Location, finally we can filter the events according to the location where they are given, both by physical rooms and virtual rooms that are registered in the platform.
As we apply filters the events that meet the criteria will be displayed in the right section.
In turn, the student can click on the events that appear in the right section to see more information about them. This information is displayed in a pop-up window. From this window you can also open the event and register if you wish to do so (and are not already registered).
Let's see an example
The student selects the global calendar, on January 12, 2016, the events in which he or she is registered and the agenda view. The events shown in the right section are as follows:
This view shows all the available information about the event and can also be accessed by clicking on view course.
Another example
We select in the global calendar, on April 29th, online events in which the student is registered. You can see that there are 17 events, in which the student is enrolled and that last all day (note that the header, before the first hour of the day, refers to events that last all day). If you want to see the rest, you have to click on the text "+13 more", this way the information will be shown in a list like the one below.
Also, if you click on an event it will show a popup with information related to the event.
Clicking VIEW COURSE will display the course, which will allow the student to register if desired.
Summary
The calendar allows students to organize themselves better by allowing them to see at a glance those events for which they are registered or available for registration.
