Motivated by Numbers?

 by Rhonda Scheurer

Are you a COC member who is motivated by numbers?  You can now access your own COC stats and information on our website.

Your Event Statistics

On the Membership menu, you can now access a new item called "My Event Statistics".  This page will show you your statistics for Events Attended and Events Coordinated, broken down first by Event Type and then by Difficulty Rating.  

It is now very easy to spot your personal bests, and strive to beat them!

Milestone Events

In June of 2021, we introduced Certificates of Achievement for members who have attended (or coordinated) milestone events.  You can see our FAQ, What event milestones will I get a Certificate of Achievement for?, to find out for which events Certificates are generated, and our Blog post, Recognizing Member Milestone Events, for more information.  

To make it easier for members to recognize what events were their "milestone" events, we've added event numbering on the member profile page.  You can use this, if you like, to "cherry-pick" what event you want to do for an upcoming milestone (and make for a special Certificate of Achievement).  

For your convenience, we've made it easier for you to find and view your own profile - just look on the "Membership" menu under "My Account" for "View Your Profile".  At the bottom of the profile page you will see a list of events you've attended.  By default, the page only shows what events you've attended in the past month, but you can easily switch that to "view entire event history".

Suggestions for Improvement?

These new features were requested by long-time COC member and volunteer, Wendy W.  If you have any suggestions for improvement to these features (or any other website features), feel free to contact our Webmaster.
