Cisco employees and Cisco partners are eligible to be a proctor for a specific workshop, after completing the qualifications for that workshop.  A workshop proctor is able to both request and run workshops!

To become a proctor, you have to qualify for the workshop you want to run.

Yes you can have as many as you need.  It is recommended that you have one proctor per 25 students.  When doing a hands on course it can be difficult to keep up with all of your students needs effectively when you have more than 25.  There are obviously exceptions.  To add additional proctors to your course the will need to have them register for the event.  Make sure you calculate your capacity with extra proctors in mind.

Events no longer disappear from the UI anymore.  We used to hide past events but based on request we have turned that feature off.  For example this FAQ was updated on December 1st, 2025 and this is all the events from November 2025.

Workshop Event Invite Options: 

 

  1. Outlook Invitation - Email all your potential attendees the URL to your workshop using the email templates located here
