What is a webinar?
A webinar is a presentation that is delivered over the internet.
Do I need any special equipment
to participate in a webinar?
All you need is your computer screen and keyboard and either
a telephone, speakers or a headset.
You participate in a webinar by listening
to the speaker, watching Powerpoint slides, and sending
in and answering questions. You may listen to the presenters
through a telephone headset, speakers, or a headset. You
use your computer screen to watch the Powerpoint slides
and do not need to have Powerpoint installed on your computer
to see them. You use your computer keyboard to send in and
answer questions.
You may listen to the presentation by
dialing a phone number and hearing the presenters over your
phone. Or, you may put on a headset that enables you to
hear sound through your computer or turn on speakers attached
to your computer. You would join the webinar by clicking
on a link that will be shared with you when you register
for the program.
How does a webinar differ from
your teleseminars?
Our teleseminars have an auditory component only. You can
listen to our teleseminars through a telephone, headset,
or speakers. Our teleseminars do not include slides.
I would like to see a webinar
that has already been presented. How can I do that?
Our programs are recorded and saved for future viewing.
Once you purchase the program, you will receive a replay
link that will allow you to watch and hear the recorded
program. We will also have the programs transcribed.
What is a teleseminar?
A teleseminar is a lecture that takes place over
the phone. Our lectures are conducted as interviews between
the moderator and the guest. If you want to participate
in the live program, you will purchase the right to be part
of the call and be given a phone number and a conference
ID number to use at the time of the call. A few minutes
before the teleseminar is to begin, you will call that number
and will be connected to the teleseminar. You may also listen
live over the web through a flashplayer, Windows Media or
a popup player. You will listen in on the seminar as the
moderator (Pat Iyer)
interviews the guest speaker.
Will I have a chance to ask questions
of the speakers?
Yes, you will have a chance to type in questions
in advance of the program, which will be emailed to Pat
Iyer. When you register for the phone call, you will be
sent a link that enables you to send questions, and also
gives you the phone number to call and the conference code.
May I record the teleseminar?
No, the call will be recorded by the teleseminar company.
A recording of the call, in the form of a CD or MP3 file,
will be available for sale after the call.
What is an MP3 file?
This is a file that you download onto your computer and
listen to on an MP3 player or Ipod or with speakers or a
headset directly from your computer.
I would prefer to read the transcript
of the call instead of attending the live event. How can
I get the transcript?
We will have the call transcribed and send the
PDF transcript of the call once the transcript is ready.
Just select the transcript option when you place your order.
How do I read a PDF file?
Go to www.adobe.com
and download the free
Adobe Reader.
Is the transcript reviewed and
edited?
Yes, it is lightly edited. Accurate transcription is verified
before it is finalized.
What happens if I pay for the
live teleseminar and miss the call because of a scheduling
conflict?
Just let us know you missed the call and we will
send you either the transcript as a PDF file or the MP3
file at no additional charge.
I can’t attend the live
program but would still like to get the information. How
can I do that?
We will sell the CD and MP3 file after the call,
and will have the transcript for sale after it has been
prepared.
If I can’t attend the call,
what is the estimated delivery time for the other ways the
program is available?
The MP3 file will be ready in 1 week.The transcript
will be ready in 1-2 weeks. The CD will be ready in 2 weeks.
Why does it take longer to get
the CD?
We need to send the audiofile to the company that
reproduces the CDs. The company burns the CD and sends it
to us for approval. After we approve of the quality of the
image and recording, orders can be filled.
I would like to earn nursing contact
hours for the program. How do I do that?
We are able to grant nursing contact hours through
an arrangement with Taylor College. Each 1 hour teleseminar
has been approved for 1 contact hour. All you have to do
is print out the evaluation form and post test, complete
both documents, and mail with a check for $15.00 to Taylor
College. The provider is approved by the California Board
of Registered Nursing, provider number CEP-3285. CE credit
is accepted in all states that require mandatory continuing
education for relicensure. Call 1-800-743-4006 with CE questions.
There will be a $15 fee, paid directly to the provider,
only if you need the CE certificate.
Are the contact hours granted
by Taylor College good anywhere in the US?
Yes, they are. Any specific questions related to
contact hours should be directed to Norman Heavens at Taylor
College, 1-800-743-4006.
If I don’t want contact
hours, where to I send the program evaluation form?
The evaluation form should be sent to Pat Iyer
at 260 Route 202-31, Suite 200, Flemington, NJ 08822. We
encourage you to give us feedback.
Do you offer teleseminars that
have been approved for CLE for attorneys?
No, not at this time.
