Wildcat for Life Platform

Starting this summer, we’re using the Wildcat for Life platform for Homecoming event pages and virtual event check-in. The process will largely remain the same, but here are the updates to this year’s process: 

Check-in Kiosk: Required for Events on Almabase  

  • There will be a check-in kiosk feature offered this year. It simplifies the guest check-in process. On check-in day, guests will scan a QR code to check into their event. 

  • An information session was hosted on August 14th, the recording can be found here: New Homecoming Event Pages and Virtual Check-In 

  • To use the check-in kiosk, you are required to watch a training video and acknowledge a security policy, which you can find at: Wildcat for Life Check-in Kiosk 

  • Every person given access to the check-in kiosk must have already completed the foundation’s security policy. Failure to complete the security policy will result in denial of access to the check-in kiosk. No exceptions will be granted. 

  • We will host two “Open Office Hour” information sessions in September. Schedule TBD 
     

Confirmation and Reminder Emails

  • Confirmation emails will be sent automatically to the event registrant with the details of their registration. 

  • This year, there will be an option to send registrants an automatic email reminder the day before the event. You can opt-in to this feature when submitting your event Homecoming event registration form. 

Registration Form Close Date

  • Registrations will not have to mandatorily close before the event. If you would like to take registrations at the door, please provide that information when you submit your event support request. 

  • Please note that there will still be a 24-48 hour delay for the registrants to appear in Lynx, with adjustments made for business hours and weekends. 

Questions or Updates 

  • If you have a registered event and have any questions or need updates to your events registration webpage, please contact your event support team member via your Support Desk ticket. You can find your open requests in Service Desk (open the dropdown menu from your name in the top right corner, go to ‘Requests’) or by responding to the email you receive from the team member.
