This extension allows you to create and manage a list of seminars, workshops, lectures, theater performances and other events as an overview or as detailed descriptions. In addition, it allows front-end users to register for these events.
Particularly, you can manage speakers, seminar sites and organizers and use them for the seminars. You can get an overview of how many people have registered for which seminar.

The mailing list and newsgroup are synced, so you just need one of them to stay informed.
