Hello all,
The Kentucky Center's Governor's School for the Arts is looking for a new database to house their needs (i.e. tracking auditions, summer program enrollment, tracking outreach attendence, teaching artist contracts, etc.). I know that the Seattle Children's Theatre did a presentation at the Conference, but I'm wondering if anyone else can give some feedback with examples of how your organization has made Tessitura work for your Education programs (i.e. classes, auditions, etc.) instead of using a separate database.
Thank you in advance for your thoughts :)

We have been registering child and adult classes in Tessitura for about a year. For children’s classes, we sell orders to the parent and assign the child on the special request window (the MOS requires a SR). Each class is set up as a performance with different price types for discounts and scholarships. We have a couple of custom reports including a confirmation letter and a class roster. We also have a custom field on the Custom Data tab of the Order window for the date the waiver is received.
We are in the process of setting up our outreach program using performances. We will probably use custom fields on the Custom tab page on the Performance Details window. Fran from the network has been extremely helpful in providing suggestions for outreach programs.
You are welcome to contact me directly, if you want more information.
