Webinars
A Webinar is short for Web-based seminar that is a presentation, lecture, or workshop transmitted over the Web. A key feature of a Webinar is its interactive elements — the ability to give, receive, and discuss information. Participants will receive log-in information by e-mail prior to the seminar. You will need computer access to view the instructor’s PowerPoint slides and telephone access to listen to audio during the seminar.
