Event Dates and Times Display

For additional information regarding the displayed time zones for events, kindly refer to the details provided below:

How are dates and times displayed on the Assess App?

The dates and times in the Assess App are displayed according to the local time of the event. 

Example: 

If an event is scheduled for 4th December 2023 at 8am in Brisbane time, this specific time will be shown across all pages featuring dates and times. Similarly, if an event is set for 4th December 2023 at 8am in Perth time, this time will be consistently displayed. 

In summary, the AssessApp does not adjust event times according to the user's local timezone. 

How are dates and times displayed on the Training Event page within the LMS?

The dates and times on the Training Event page are displayed based on the user's timezone, determined by their device's timezone settings, which the browser utilises. 

Example: 

If an event is scheduled for 4th December 2023 at 8am Australia/Brisbane time, and the user's device timezone is set to Australia/Brisbane, the event will be displayed as 4th December 2023 at 8am in the calendar, list, and map views.

However, If an event is scheduled for 4th December 2023 at 8am Australia/Brisbane time, and the user's device timezone is set to Australia/Perth, the event will be displayed as 4th December 2023  at 6am in the calendar, list, and map views.

In summary, the Training Event calendar does indeed adjust the displayed time based on the user's local timezone.

How are dates and times presented in event notification emails?

In event notification emails, dates and times are displayed in the local time of the respective event. The Assess App does not automatically adjust the time for the user's local timezone within event notification emails. 

Example:

If an event is scheduled for 4th December 2023 at 8am Brisbane time, this precise time will be featured in the email text. Similarly, if the event is set for 4th December 2023 at 10am Perth time, this time will consistently appear on all pages.

In summary, the displayed times in the email reflect the local time of the event as originally set up.

How are dates and times displayed in event notification email calendar attachments?

Dates and times within event notification email calendar attachments are displayed based on the user's timezone set within the email/calendar platform they use to view the calendar event. 

Example:

For example, If an event is set up for 4th December 2023 8am Brisbane Time, and the user's calendar app timezone is set to Australia/Perth, it will display as 4th December 2023 6am in the calendar event.

In summary, the email or calendar application used to view the event entry does adjust the displayed time according to the user's local timezone settings.
