You are trying to:
Set your availability.
Overview:
The EzLicence calendar enables you to easily and in real time customise the days and times that you are available, as well as block out times when you are not available. In this support article, we will provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to set your operating hours.
When setting your operating hours, it is important to not only consider your needs but also the needs of learners. We recommend ensuring that you offer as much availability as you can in order to attract the maximum number of bookings.
To further assist you, our data suggests the busiest times for driving lessons are as follows:
- Evenings and Weekends: Many driving instructors find that evenings (after school or work) and weekends (Saturday and Sunday) are the busiest times. This is when most students have free time to schedule driving lessons without conflicting with their regular commitments.
- Afternoons: Afternoons, especially during the weekends, tend to be quite busy as students often choose this time for lessons after school/uni/sport.
- During School Breaks: School holidays and breaks can also be peak times for driving instructors, as students have more flexibility in their schedules.
We prioritise your flexibility - you can make changes to your availability at any time, it is easy!
How to set your operating hours
Step 1.
Log in to your instructor account.
Step 2.
On your Dashboard, top right hand side of your screen, click the Menu icon
Step 3.
Select Service Area & Availability.
Step 4.
Scroll down to the Availability section.
Step 5.
You will see each day of the week listed. Next to each day is a check box ☑. Make sure there is a tick in the box next to each day of the week you want to work.
Step 6.
Under each day of the week, there are opening times and closing times. Using the dropdown, adjust the times to suit your schedule. Please note it uses a 24 hour clock format.
Step 7. (optional)
If you wish to offer a split shift, you can simply click the Add another time link under each day. This is a great way to add in a lunch break, maybe you have children you pick up after school or a regular gym class you like to attend.
Step 8.
Adjust the times as you need.
Step 9.
At the bottom of the page, click the Save Changes button.
Important
Making changes to your availability will not change any bookings or events that are already in your calendar.
Your travel time also impacts your overall availability. For further information on how to change your travel time, click here.
If you work in another job that operates on a roster, we recommend that you set your availability and then use your calendar to block out days until your roster is available. For further information on how to use your calendar, click here.
Unfortunately, our system doesn’t allow you to add availability on an adhoc basis, a day here and there. If you wish to work outside of your normal hours, we recommend that you propose bookings to your existing learners. For further information on how to propose bookings, click here.
