Accudemia now support guest sign-on, which allow non-registered students to sign-in to your center. It’s very useful for head counting purposes since you can then report only on those guests students. Because they are guests, they do not have to sign-out when leaving, that makes it even easier to use. You can enable this features in the Control Panel, under Walk-Ins. Just check the option “Allow Guest Sign-Ins” and enter the ID of the user you want to use internally for guests. That will help you on reporting.
