consider finalizing the 'discounted' membership rates soon as we will be setting our budget in the next 60 days and going to print on our flyers/materials. just my viewpoint.

Good point, thank you Kathryn

will you be adding an advanced skill set for Team Racing

^That would be awesome

This is great for Parents who don’t sail!

yes, half of our program is at racing level and having at least outline of skills and check marks would be very helpful , even before videos etc are available

maybe include for newbie parents how to tie boat to a car

if a student is not a us sailing member would an instructor have the opportunity to still put that child’s name into the program for attendance purposes?

that creates a potentially fractured instruction situation for instructors if they cants track all students

does each member ID tie to a sailor (minor) email? or their parents email?

Richard, the expectation is t hat all the sailors in your program will be US sailing members. The cost will be low and hopefully you can build that into your registration cost

Kathryn- It is the parent's email address

Typically

is there an opportunity to comment on attendance? eg “left early for tennis match”

similar to Richards question ^ is there room for a narrative or written comments?

Can instructors define their own lessons using same format as you showed, save it and then share it with other instructors

@Alex: I just tried doing that in the app and it seems you can

is there an opportunity to comment on attendance? eg “left early for tennis match”

In addition to John's earlier URL for Skill Up, here is another link that is specific to the mobile app and program dashboard https://www.ussailing.org/membership/organizations/skill-up/

thanks
