How to Register for a Specific Seminar Session

Is it possible to send out an email invitation and have staff choose from a listing of three available Seminar sessions they would like to register? Currently we have a Seminar room that we have made available for three time slots, and we would like to have staff choose which one they would like to attend, and self register for that one. Using the Event manager, I see that I can create an Event (for the Seminar) and send email invitations for the date/time that I select for the Event only, but not for the available Seminar sessions. I didn't really see options where I am able to customize the Invitation email to make this happen. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks!

    Short version is that the Events tool schedules its own sessions in the Seminar rooms. Since it does that, it can't be set up to use a room that has a session scheduled at the same time.

    What I would do is delete the scheduled sessions you have for these seminars and recreate them using the Events tool. Then you can send an email with the links to the three events or an Event Catalog link which shows all three and users can choose which to register for.
