Event Management Upgrades

In September 2026, Thrive added three new event management features: QR code attendance, event costs and minimum attendee numbers. Event management is how admins plan, run and track learning sessions in Thrive, and these upgrades make in-person events easier to run and report on. They're ideal for frontline and multi-site teams running classroom sessions.

• QR code attendance, so attendees can be marked present by scanning a code.
• An event cost field, so admins can record what each event costs.
• A minimum attendee setting for each event.

• Faster, more accurate attendance tracking at in-person sessions.
• Clearer visibility of what learning events cost.
• Better planning, with a minimum number of attendees set up front.

• Admins add costs and minimum attendee numbers when setting up an event.
• At the event, attendance is captured with a QR code.
• Attendance is recorded against the event in Thrive.

• A trainer running an in-person workshop marks attendance with a QR code instead of a paper sign-in sheet.
• An L&D team records the cost of external training sessions to understand spend.

• Admins and trainers running in-person events.
• L&D leaders tracking event costs and attendance.
