How to create a recurring event

This will be useful if: 

You are a Driving Instructor User of the Secure Licence booking platform.
 

You are trying to: 

Send multiple recurring bookings to your learner.
 

Overview:

Recurring events are ideal when you have learners who prefer to take lessons on a regular, ongoing basis. Using this feature helps you stay organised and maintain a steady schedule.

You might use recurring events when:

• A learner wants to book the same day and time each week.

• You want to reserve a regular slot for a learner to help them stay consistent.

• You’d like to fill your calendar in advance to ensure predictable income and availability.

• You want to reduce admin time by avoiding the need to manually create each individual booking.

Recurring events make it easier for both you and your learners to plan ahead, minimise scheduling conflicts, and support consistent learning progress.

The learner will receive a notification, which will be sent via SMS and email. Learners can accept or reject the proposal from their learner account.

Booking proposals will expire at the booking start time OR after 24 hrs from when it was sent (whichever comes first).

Once it is accepted by the learner, it will change to a yellow confirmed booking.
