Need BNI calendar to integrate with Outlook calendar
Our region has advanced training events that never show up on my Outlook calendar. As a result, I miss those trainings and the networking opportunities that those present. I like many others live or die on the basis of my outlook calendar that is on my phone and synced with my desktop outlook. Everything that intersects with my business (whether it be physician appointments, pharmacy pick up reminders) and in between my business appointments is now on my outlook calendar. It is how I and many other professionals run our lives. Outlook (and its calendar) have a huge base of users world wide. It would seem that BNI is very late to the table getting an Outlook calendar integration rolling. I would implore BNI to get an Outlook calendar integration so all BNI events that I have agreed to participate in, show up on my calendar. IF BNI is working on this, please accelerate this work and prioritize it. We are losing out on advanced trainings and networking opportunities because of this lack of integration.

@drlee - Thank you for the suggestion. This is on our master list of feature requests for future discussion and consideration. We will add your request as a "vote" for prioritization. Hope this helps and have a great weekend!

Hi Dr Lee,
This would be a great feature to have. But a huge system such as BNI Connect would need some time to add integration. A simplest is to add ics calendar invite. That way, REGISTERED trainings can be added into any calendar app.
In meantime, you can make a suggestion to regional team to create a shared calendar for training events. We do that for our national training teams.
Hope this helps!
