HOW DOES A WEBINAR WORK?

The live audio is delivered to your location over the telephone or your computer speakers. The Power-Point presentations are presented over the Internet and are available to print out before the program. This is like a talk-radio program with visuals on the Web. You and your team will be able to have a live Q&A with all the speakers.
 You need Real Player or Windows Media Player installed on your computer. If you do not have either, please follow the instructions below to download and install them. Or if you prefer, a phone for the audio and an Internet connection to let you watch the slides and other information on the Web will suffice. No other downloads or special hardware needed - a dial-up connection will work fine. 

• One (1) set of materials (you may make copies for all of the persons you invited to listen to the program);
• One (1) toll-free connection to the seminar (if you select the audio connection), and
• One (1) Internet connection to the seminar.

Use speakers on your computer or speakerphone on your telephone and invite your entire staff to attend for one low price of 299 USD per site.  Package options are available if you register for multiple webinars.
See registration for details.
