Front office staff can create waitlists, or virtual queues, for service resources, such as advisors, who are available for drop-in appointments. The staff can then generate a QR code for the waitlist, and share it with learners who wish to make an appointment. Learners can scan the QR code to check in and add themselves to the waitlist. Service resources are notified of the check-in and can accept the drop in appointment, while learners wait in the lobby.

On the learner portal, learners can check the status of their check-ins and position in the queue. When a service resource accepts a check-in, the learner can view the scheduled appointment on the Upcoming appointments tab.
