Arlo allows you to set registration limits on your courses and receive alerts when the maximum limit is reached or the minimum limit is not met. If you have a course where registrants have a choice of multiple sessions, you can also set a maximum limit on individual sessions.
When the maximum limit is reached, customers will not be able to register for the course on the website. If the waiting list feature is active, registrants will instead be able to add their name you the waiting list for the course.
Administrators will still be able to register and transfer contacts to a full course within the management platform. Courses, where the minimum limit has not been reached, will not be automatically cancelled.
