I wanted to share this tip – since it is not so obvious and after doing it myself the hard way – I found a much easier way to find the right sessions for VMworld which will most probably save you a lot of time and headaches
If you go into the Schedule Builder – after you have already logged (as I said in my earlier post) you will be presented with this screen.
Trying to find which sessions you would like is not easy. You can apply a filter on the top or on the left:
- Type
- Day
- Track
- Technical Level
- Area of Interest
But it is still not an easy way to organize your schedule.
Here is the way I found – much easier IMHO
On the left you have the Site Menu
From the drop down click on Schedule
This will present you with your schedule so far (if you have not yet added any sessions of course it will be blank)
Click on Edit Schedule
This will open a layover windows with your schedule and all the sessions on that day.
Already organized
Hovering over the sessions on the left will bring up the timeslot for the session on your schedule on the right.
So much easier this way. You can see the conflicts, adding the session in will notify you that it will remove the previous ones, also if there is an overlap in the times.
Should be the default way to build the schedule - if you ask me.
I Hope I saved you some time..
