Hi all,

Are there any gliding clubs using a booking system of some sort to organise
training activities?  This may be as simple as who is turning up and who is
instructing or a complete system allocating student, instructor, aircraft
and timeslot.

SCGC has been using an internally developed one for quite a few years 
now. Works pretty well for us and is a simple list of who is coming for 
the day and the role (tuggie, instructor, trainee, pilot). We use 
Dutyman for long term roster management, but our own for the day to day 
attendance. It's now been hooked into a payment gateway so you can pay 
for your flights in the evening without needing to bring cash or card to 
the field.


Have a chat with Cliff Jefferies as he is an instructor at your club as 
well as ours, and wrote all our system. I image he could easily reskin 
it for your use.

Have a look at MRBS. Meeting Room Booking System. Free and open source
but overall fairly useful for a wide range of things. " It is in
production use at many large organisations around the world for uses
as diverse as it's originally intended meeting rooms to restaurant
tables and aeroplanes at a flying school!"

http://mrbs.sourceforge.net

I am not sure if they mean this but:

Where it is used apparently for accomodation, aircraft, students etc.

There is an online system that seems quite flexible - I've recently started
to use it for a volunteer group I am involved in.

www.signupgenius.com

The functionality in the free version is pretty good - you can certainly
use most of it - some reporting options are not available until you stump
up the cash, and there is a limit to the number of emails you can send each
month.


hope this helps...

Thanks & Regards,

Nelson Handcock

[Aus-soaring] Training booking system and process

[Ben Coleman]

Hi all,

Are there any gliding clubs using a booking system of some sort to organise
training activities?  This may be as simple as who is turning up and who is
instructing or a complete system allocating student, instructor, aircraft
and timeslot.
If you have experience of such a system please get in touch either here or
via email.  I would love to hear the pros and cons.
