Evaluating speakers

Enter any evaluation data that you want to record for a speaker's activity record before closing an event. The data used to generate the activity records consists of the evaluation criteria within the speaker's group. This evaluation criteria is defined on the Event Function Definition - Speakers window and is indented underneath the group's heading.

You can enter several speaker evaluations for a given function, one for each speaker resource group defined on the Set up event resources window (from Events, select Set up tables > Event resources).
