A workshop registration form should collect enough information to prepare the session without turning sign-up into a long application. For most workshops, the essentials are participant name, email, organisation or company, role, session choice and any practical information the organiser genuinely needs.
Recommended registration fields
- Full name
- Email address
- Organisation, company or school
- Role or job title
- Workshop date or session choice
- Learning goal or reason for attending
- Accessibility or dietary needs where relevant
- Consent to any necessary event communications
Keep optional questions optional
Experience level, goals and accessibility information can help a facilitator prepare, but do not collect personal information simply because a template offers a field for it. Use only what is relevant to the workshop and explain why sensitive practical information is needed.
Online form vs printable registration sheet
For public workshops, an online form is usually easier because responses can be exported to a spreadsheet. For small internal sessions, a simple participant list may already exist. WorkshopPack starts after registration: paste or enter the confirmed attendees once and reuse them across the attendance sheet, badges and certificates.
Turn registrations into workshop paperwork
Once places are confirmed, avoid retyping the same names across multiple documents. WorkshopPack uses one participant list to create the event-day paperwork and participant-facing documents.
