# Reminders

LUCY allows administrators to configure reminders within a campaign to ensure recipients engage with the content. This feature is particularly useful for reminding users who have not interacted with the campaign as expected.

{% hint style="info" %}
Starting in Lucy version 5.1, campaign reminder settings are included in [campaign templates.](/application-reference/templates/campaign-templates.md)
{% endhint %}

***

## Configuration

Reminder emails can be sent once or repetetively. You can configure a custom reminder message (ideal for attacks) or simply resend the original email (ideal for awareness).

#### Single Message

Select this option to send one reminder email N days after the original email.

#### Repetetive Message

Select this option to send a reminder email every N days after the original email.

#### Use Scenario or Awareness Email

Select this option to resend the original template email, rather than a custom reminder message.

{% hint style="success" %}
If you are using a custom reminder email, select **Edit Template** to customize it.
{% endhint %}

## Awareness Reminders

{% hint style="info" %}

{% endhint %}

### **Remind Users Who Did Not Start a Training**

Enable this option to send a reminder to users who did not start the training after receiving the awareness email. Lucy will send a reminder to anyone who did not click the training link.

### **Remind Users Who Did Not Finish a Training**
