The Mastering Online Facilitation Series includes four one-hour webinars. You may register for any or all sessions.
The Mastering Online Facilitation Series is designed to improve your skills when leading online meetings, webinars, and events. These classes are for those with some experience using online meeting technology, but wanting to create an online meeting experience where attendees are actively engaged and learning is the focus.

Myth-busting: Does face-to-face always trump online interactions?

Participants will:
-
Be able to demonstrate familiarity with basic tools and techniques that produce engaging online meetings and webinars;
