Advertise the class at least a week in advance, if possible, to ensure that as many people as possible can arrange to attend - longer than that and they might forget. If you only give people a couple of days, you might find attendance to be on the low side. | Advertise the class at least a week in advance, if possible, to ensure that as many people as possible can arrange to attend - longer than that and they might forget.

Follow the procedure listed [[How_to_schedule_a_class|here]] for scheduling and promoting your class. The Syllabus Template includes a format for posting into the Scheduled Classes forum, or you can borrow one from a previously scheduled class there. | |||
For fleet-based classes, it is a great idea to advertise a 15-minute fleet sign-up period when advertising the class. For example: "Fleet will form from 19:45 to 20:00 and class will start promptly at 20:00 - latecomers will not be able to attend." (You might choose to be more lenient on the day, but no need to let people know that in advance!) | For fleet-based classes, it is a great idea to advertise a 15-minute fleet sign-up period when advertising the class.
