Can Cal.com connect with our LMS and SIS?

Connect staff calendars and teaching tools in minutes. Cal.com syncs with Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple Calendar, and integrates with Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams for virtual delivery. Use the Apps Marketplace to link Stripe for paid sessions and donations. Connect your LMS or SIS using webhooks, Zapier, Make, or the Cal.com API. This foundation powers adult learning programs across admissions, advising, classes, and exams. Learn more at https://cal.com/apps, explore workflows at https://cal.com/workflows, and review the API at https://cal.com/docs/api.

How do reminders handle multiple time zones and modalities?

Cal.com automatically respects the attendee’s time zone and preferred language. You can send email, SMS, and WhatsApp messages with join links for virtual sessions or location details for in person classes. Send pre class and post class messages based on precise timing.

Can we schedule group classes, cohorts, and office hours?

Yes. Create group events for classes and info sessions, plus round robin or collective events for advising and office hours. Set capacity, waitlists, and audience specific messaging so instructors and learners get what they need, when they need it.

Is Cal.com secure enough for institutions and partners?

Cal.com offers enterprise grade security features, access controls, and the option to self host for data residency. You can use SSO and detailed permissions to meet internal policies. Review your requirements with our team at https://cal.com/enterprise.

Can we accept payments for continuing education courses?

Yes. Connect Stripe to collect payments during booking, enforce paid access, and send receipts automatically. Pair payment confirmations with workflow messages that include course materials and policies for a smooth learner experience.

Can marketing track which campaigns drive bookings?

Yes. Cal.com supports UTM parameters and custom fields so you can attribute bookings to campaigns. Forward data to your CRM or analytics through webhooks and apps, then optimize continuing education marketing ideas based on real outcomes.

Do we need developers to maintain workflows?

No. Nontechnical staff use the no code builder to launch and adjust workflows quickly. Developers can extend functionality with the API, webhooks, and apps. Start with templates and grow as your adult learning programs scale. See https://cal.com/workflows and https://cal.com/docs.

How Cal.com workflows support continuing education

Set up automated messages, tasks, and integrations that match how your programs run, from enrollment to final assessment.

Get started

Design the learner journey with triggers and actions

Create rules that reflect how you operate. Choose triggers like booking created, rescheduled, or canceled, or time based triggers such as 48 hours before class. Pair triggers with actions such as email, SMS, or WhatsApp reminders, Slack notifications for instructors, CRM updates, and LMS task creation via webhooks. Personalize content by event type, cohort, or learner segment. This helps you guide continuing education courses online, workforce development training, and professional certification programs from orientation through graduation.

Measure, iterate, and scale

Monitor attendance, reschedules, and cancellations to identify improvement opportunities. Refine timing and message templates to reduce no shows and drop offs. Reuse workflow templates for new cohorts, franchises, or campuses to scale consistently. Manage workflows in code with the API, or use the no code builder for quick changes. If data residency or stricter controls are required, deploy Cal.com self hosted and keep student data under your control. See options at https://cal.com/self-hosting and enterprise capabilities at https://cal.com/enterprise.

Customize the message

Use Cal.com's default templates or fully customize your messages.

Benefits for continuing education and adult learning

Reduce no-shows and drop-offs

Automated reminders by email, SMS, and WhatsApp keep learners on track. Cal.com respects each learner’s time zone and preferred language, so reminders and updates feel personal. Use pre class checklists, day of reminders, and post session follow ups to improve attendance for continuing education courses online and in person. Institutions report smoother cohorts when reminders include join links, parking details, and materials, all sent at the right moment.

Scale cohorts and instructors

Grow without adding admin hours. Pool instructor availability, route learners to the right advisor, and manage group events for classes, office hours, or labs. Round robin booking and collective scheduling let multiple instructors share a workload fairly. For workforce development training, use routing forms to place learners into the correct track or skill level, then auto assign sessions based on capacity and location.

Thrilled with this scheduling app—it's a game-changer. The intuitive interface and advanced features streamline my time management. The standout, however, is the incredible support team—swift, expert responses to every query. A perfect combo for seamless scheduling and top-notch customer service. P.s. Way better than Calendly
Mickeyem Trustpilot
I just migrated from calendly to cal.com I'm liking it so far. I wasn't particularly displeased with calendly. It's fine. But I like that cal is OSS and my sub to calendly was coming up for renewal so I thought I'd check it out. Looks good.
Kent C. Dodds 🌌@kentcdodds em X
2 days of using @calcom is enough to never look back at calendly
Anuvesh Singh@singh_anuvesh em X
Without a doubt the best calendar/scheduling application I have ever used. It has all of the advanced features I need while also being insanely intuitive and straightforward for both end-users and booking recipients. Love it!!
davidvkimballem Trustpilot
(finally) made the move to @calcom after I couldn't find how to edit events in the calendly dashboard and I must say - dash is 10/10 Bravo @peer_rich and team (I should have moved over years ago!) OSS fam
Ant Wilson@AntWilson em X
One of the best tools for scheduling and my favorite after so many other options tried.

more elegant than Calendly, more open than Savvycal, cal.com works and it feels just right.
flo merianem Product Hunt
This platform's open-source nature and flexible licensing are a developer's dream. Self-hosting and white-labeling empower personalization and seamless integration.
Ahmed Elnaggarem Product Hunt
for the love of me, why do people still use Calendly? Just today I have seen products reference Calendly while they know of @calcom It's a no brainer for me to use , their brand is amazing, cool team + they even have more compelling features 🤷
Rotimi Best@rotimi_best em X
Amazing. I've been sharing it with everyone I know. It's helped me create more events spontaneously, because of how smooth it is compared to Calendly and Harmonizely.
Benem Product Hunt
Very easy to set up and start. Connected with my Google calendar without any problem. Connecting with Microsoft gives me an error. But other than that the user interface is very good.
Pankaj Dixitem Product Hunt
Just gave it a go and it's definitely the easiest meeting I've ever scheduled! No context switching, no distractions, and works even better on mobile too.
