Rubric Event Wizard

This section collects the details needed to advertise and promote your event through Rubric. The information you provide will be visible to students browsing upcoming events. You can also use the ticketing feature to sell tickets or to track attendance for free or non-ticketed events.

 

Event Wizard Page

Instructions

Type of Event

Select the category that best describes your event. This choice is mainly for promotion and affects how your event will be filtered and displayed on the Rubric website so students can find it easily.

Event Information

This page collects the basic details of your event. You’ll enter the event name, date and time, location (or online link), and upload a promo banner. You’ll also provide a short description that tells students what the event is about and why they should attend.


Optional fields let you add extra information such as a Facebook event link, refund policy, or terms and conditions.


For detailed instructions, visit the Rubric Help Center guide on creating an event.

Tickets

This page lets you set up tickets for your event. You can create free or paid tickets, limit the number available, and set sales start and end dates.


Since tickets cannot be disabled in Rubric, student groups not using tickets should create a placeholder ticket called “Not Applicable” with a price of $0.00.


For detailed instructions, visit the Rubric Help Center guide on creating tickets.

University of Alberta Students' Union Questions

This section of the form is reviewed by a Student Affairs Advisor to support your group and address event risk management considerations. 


A full list of the questions in this section is provided later in this document (see ‘Preview of Event Form Questions’).

Upsell Merchandise

Rubric includes a merchandise feature that allows student groups to sell items like shirts, hoodies, or other gear online.


This feature is not enabled at the University of Alberta, so you can skip this page when completing your event submission by clicking next.

Event Summary

This is the final review page before submitting your event. Double-check your event details, ticket setup, and any other information you’ve entered.


To complete your submission, you must click Publish. If the event is not published, it will not appear in the Student Affairs Advisors’ queue for review.


For more guidance, visit the Rubric Help Center guide on the event summary page.
