Policies & Guidelines
Event Submission Requirements
Events may only be submitted for consideration for the calendar by members of the CU Denver community (students, faculty and staff) through the calendar's event submission form
.
An account is required to login and submit events to the calendar. No account is needed to view events on the calendar.
- Use the Calendar Submission Form
Events must be submitted through the calendar's online event submission form.Event Admins may also submit events through the Administration Dashboard.
- Be an Approved University Entity
Events should be organized and/or sponsored by a CU Denver entity (school, department, program, office, center or institute). - Have an Approved Room Reservation
Prior to submitting an event to the calendar, the event organizer/sponsor​ must have completed an approved room reservation through the EMS room reservation system,
AHEC's Event Services, or the Student Wellness Center and ensure that the dates and times associated with the event are correct. An event published to the calendar does not reserve the location. - Provide Complete Event Information
Although only Event Name, Description and Start Date are required fields, event listings should also include Time, Location, a complete and thorough description that includes sponsor/host
and contact information, and a high-quality image (940x557px is ideal). Note that event flyers or images containing text do not
comply with federal website accessibility requirements and will not be accepted. A website link for additional information is encouraged, as are filters that allow your event to be categorized. Only event information that is finalized
and ready for public viewing will be published to the calendar. - Test All Links
Verify that they direct users to the proper sites. - Protect Virtual Events from Zoombombing
Utilize the Waiting Room feature or require preregistration.
- Meet Calendar Submission Deadlines
Event submissions should be submitted at 5-7 business days before the event to be included in the calendar. However, event organizers are encouraged to submit their events to the calendar
as far in advance as possible to allow adequate time for event promotion.
