Term


Note: This is a part of master data objects that will be created and maintained by admin users for an educational institution.


Term is an EDA object that represents a length of study period that is intended to last.

In EDA, a Term can be grouped by using “Parent Group”. However, we are not using this in RIO Education yet.


Online Term


Term Label = Online is used to identify an online Term.


Extending Term's end date

If you have a requirement to extend your Term date halfway through the Term, there are a fair bit of data you need to update. For example: Extending Fall 21 Term End Date from 13th Dec 2021 to 14th Dec 2021.

Easy - Change the Term End Date from 13th to 14th Dec 2021.

Medium - Review all your Course Offerings and update the End Date accordingly (if needed).

Hard - Session / Session Time. If you need to extend your Session Time's End Date to match your new Term Date, you will have to consider if you want to generate any new Session.
For example, 14th Dec 2021 is a Tuesday. If you have a Session Time to be generated every Tuesday from a Start Date till 13th Dec 2021, changing the End Date to 14th Dec means another Session Booking to be generated.
After you update the Session Time's End Date, you can click 'Save and Update Schedules' to generate the additional booking. Once this is generated, assign a Facility and Faculty Member (if applicable).
