Webinars (also called Live Online Events) are expert-led, interactive, Web-based seminars. Attendees watch the presentation live on their computer, and listen in using the telephone.
We put a link to the registration system on the Live Online Events page 20 minutes before the start of each event. Once you’ve registered, you’ll be automatically directed to a page on WebEx where you can join the event.
Wait until 20 minutes before the start time of the event (e.g., 1:40 PM for a 2:00 PM event) then refresh your browser (F5 or View/Refresh.)
We have a maximum capacity of 200 participants for each event. Immediate registration greatly reduces the number of no-shows, which means more slots available for everyone else.
All of our Live Online Events are free, including the phone call.
They generally run about 90 minutes.
You will need a computer with a web browser, and a telephone.
We use WebEx for our events. If you haven’t used WebEx before, we suggest that you first make sure the program will run properly on your computer. This can be accomplished by joining a test meeting provided by WebEx. Go to http://developers.webex.com/api/jointest/index.php to view the system requirements and join the test meeting. This should be done at least an hour before the start of the event.
Telephone: Any phone will do. A handset volume control is helpful, but not critical.
Absolutely. While we often mute participant’s phones (to reduce background noise) there is a ‘raise hand’ feature which allows the host to un-mute your phone so you can speak. There is also a ‘chat’ box which can be used to type in questions as well.
Contact WebEx customer support, at 1-866-229-3239 (menu option 1).
Yes, we record all of our Live Online Events. This includes the presentation (with audio) and possibly poll results or chat transcripts. The presentations and any additional documents are posted on the Live Online Events Archive page, generally within 48 hours.
