Accessing Calendar (Learners)

Teamie calendar is a tool that keeps you updated with the upcoming events and due dates. You can easily access your Teamie calendar from the Dash sidebar.

After accessing the calendar, you can see the events and their due dates by Month, Week and Day. Each event is given a color which represent the classroom to which the event belongs to.

4. The Calendar will be set to the current month view, by default, which you can set to week or day view as per your requirement. You can also switch to different months and see corresponding calendar events.
