In OCAD you can either work with Courses only or you can use Courses and Classes. Different Classes may use the same Course, e.g. ‘Course A<\/strong>‘ -> Class ‘W18’, ‘W16’, ‘M16’; ‘Course B<\/strong>‘ -> ‘W14’, ‘M14’, ‘Open Short’. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have two Classes (e.g. ‘Women Elite’ and ‘Women 20’) and both have the same Course, it is a common mistake to name the Course ‘WE, W20<\/strong>‘ and not to create any Classes. You will get troubles with your timing software this way.
Instead you can still name the Course ‘WE, W20<\/strong>‘ (or simple name it ‘A<\/strong>‘), but you need to create two Classes (‘WE<\/strong>‘ and ‘W20<\/strong>‘) and allocate the same Course to both of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
