Create and Manage Facilities

Facilities represent rooms located at a training center.  Within a facility, you can specify the location, the seating arrangements and audio and video equipment available for that room.  You can associate one or more facilities with a training center.  When that training center is selected for a classroom-based class schedule, associated facilities can be booked for the class. Or, it can be selected for a simple booking reservation.

You can base the limit for the maximum number of enrollments in a physical class on the capacity of the training facility hosting it.  For detailed information, please see Enrollment Limits Based on Facility.

To manage facilities, your user role must have unrestricted access to the Class Resource Manager feature in System Roles (Manage Features > Catalog Manager Features).
