Attendance sheet guide
Choose the right attendance-sheet fields
The right cell style depends on the evidence needed and the space available on paper.
Signatures
Use signatures when each attendee needs to acknowledge a session. They require the widest cells and often work best in landscape.
Initials and checkboxes
Initials offer compact acknowledgement. Checkboxes are best for simple internal attendance marking where a handwritten signature is unnecessary.
Time in and time out
Use paired time fields for visitor, volunteer, or shift records. Leave enough width for clear handwritten entries.
