Live sessions cannot be viewed on phones or tablet computers. However, session archives will be available by June 10, and these will be mobile accessible.

TROUBLESHOOTING FAQs

What if I can't hear the audio on my computer?

Check to see that your computer speakers are on.

Ensure that your speakers are not muted.

Check the volume level.

I can hear the webcast, but I can’t see the video.

If your Internet connection is not fast enough, it might cause the video to be disrupted but allow the audio to continue. Check to be sure no other programs or applications are running on your computer.

What happens if I miss a session? Are archives available?

Sessions are recorded, and archives should be available within a few days after the session.  Recordings will have audio/video and the slides combined in a single MP4 file (which can be watched on any mobile device).

Please note-we are not providing charge time for this event.
