## Overview

At SuperPath we believe every learning counts, so Events let you track and manage the learning that happens outside your courses — conferences, external courses, training sessions, or even regular mentoring and catch-ups. Creating an Event gives that learning a home in SuperPath, where you can assign it, track attendance and keep everyone up to date.

Creating an Event is quick: you add it from the Events list, then fill in the details in the Event editor.

## How to create an event

1. Go to **Events** in the left-hand menu.
2. Click **Create** in the top right of the Events list.
3. SuperPath creates a new **Untitled event** and opens it in the Event editor, ready for you to fill in the details.

> **Note:** Creating and editing Events is a desktop action — the **Create** button isn't shown on mobile.

## Filling in the details

Your new Event starts as **Untitled event** with placeholder details, which you then replace in the editor. Each part of the Event has its own guide:

* **Title, description, location and external link** — see *How to edit an event's details*.
* **Date, time and timezone** — see *How to set an event's date, time and timezone*.
* **Cover image** — see *How to add a cover image to an event*.
* **Thumbnail and library image** — see *How to add a thumbnail and library image to an event*.
* **Making it a repeating Event** — see *How to make an event recurring*.
* **Making it available for learners to find and register** — see *How to make an event available in the Library*.

As you edit, SuperPath shows an **Unsaved changes** bar at the top of the page — click **Save** there to apply your changes, or **Discard** to undo them.

## Things to keep in mind

* The Event is created the moment you click **Create** — it exists as **Untitled event** even before you've edited anything. If you created one by mistake, you can remove it (see *How to delete an event*).
* A title is required, so you can't save an Event with an empty title.
* By default a new Event is available in the Events area; use the **Available in Library?** toggle when you want learners to be able to find and register for it themselves.

## FAQs

**I clicked Create and an "Untitled event" appeared — is it already live to learners?**
The Event is created straight away, but you control what learners see. Fill in the details, then use the **Available in Library?** toggle if you want learners to find and register for it. See *How to make an event available in the Library*.

**Where do I set the date, image or make the Event repeat?**
Each of these has its own guide — see *How to set an event's date, time and timezone*, *How to add a cover image to an event*, and *How to make an event recurring*.

**Can I create an Event on my phone?**
No. Creating and editing Events is a desktop action; the **Create** button isn't available on mobile.

## Who can do this

**Owners**, **Admins**, **Managers**, **Content Managers** and **Instructors** can create Events. **People Managers**, **Employees** and **Restricted** users cannot — they have read-only access to Events and don't see the Events management area.
