Status: Select one of the following statuses:

• Planning - The initial state of a Training Event once it has been created. Training Events in planning can be loaded to the Planning Board, but does not appear on the Calendar. Training Event notifications are not triggered by Training Events in Planning status.
• Scheduled – Scheduled Training Events can be loaded to the Planning Board, appear in the Training Calendar/Course Catalog, and trigger Training Event notifications when an active notification exists. Students can self-enroll at this level. Scheduled Training Events may still be Canceled for insufficient enrollments or other reasons.
• Confirmed – Training Events that are changed to Confirmed are Training Events that will be offered and usually not cancelled. Confirmed Training Events can be loaded to the Planning Board, appear in the Training Calendar/Course Catalog, and trigger Training Event notifications when an active notification exists.
• Cancelled – Training Events that are changed to Cancelled are removed from the Training Calendar/Course Catalog. Cancelled Training Events trigger Training Event Cancel notifications when an active notification exists.
  Note: Users currently enrolled in a cancelled event can enroll in another class in the same course.
• Closed – Training Events that are changed to Closed prevent students from self-enrollment. The Closed status can be used to shut off additional enrollments.
• Completed – Training Events that are changed to Completed. The Completed status can be used to identify training events where a student record has been recorded.
