You can find more detailed information on how to do this here. Once your program setup is complete, you can use program attendance in conjunction with center attendance if applicable. If your organization doesn't utilize centers and operates solely through outreach activities, you can simply record program attendance without center attendance. For real-time attendance tracking, you can utilize the Instructor Portal if a computer is not available to you. Similar to center attendance, you have the flexibility to take program attendance in real-time or at a later time, such as at the end of the week. It's important to note that attendance can only be recorded at the Class level within a program schedule. You can also track whether or not attendance is in person or virtual via program attendance. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.c360.org/attendance/taking-attendance/program-attendance.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
