Note: A Webinar is an interactive learning experience
integrating audio conferencing and web-based presentations.
It allows for easy and effective interactive communications
with geographically dispersed participants. A Webinar
can be experienced from any location that has an audio
connection, ie: a telephone, and an Internet connection.
Some initial verification of your PC’s capabilities
needs to occur in advance of any Webinar. Thus, please
be certain to include a valid e-mail address with your
registration information so this verification process
can be forwarded to you for implementation. The process
takes about five minutes and is a one-time occurrence.
Additionally, by Friday, November 5, 2003, registered
MiCTA Webinar participates will be e-mailed the audio
bridge telephone number and Internet web site information.
Thank you for your interest and anticipated participation!!!
