Going Live

Logging in Daily

You must log in for each live event to be eligible to take the post-test.  Your attendance will be verified for each event before you are permitted to proceed to the next event and before gaining access to the post-test.

Maintaining Engagement

During the live event, the facilitators will be using various interactive tools — polling questions, reflection questions and the chat box to keep you engaged. You are encouraged to pose your questions in the Q&A and Polls section. The facilitators will address as many questions as time permits. To increase the priority status of an existing question in the Q&A and Polls section, please select the thumbs up C.

Access to Next Live Events

At the end of each event, you will be re-directed to an evaluation.  Please complete the evaluation each day before logging off, so you will be able to access the next event.  

Learner Guide

The learner guide will be available under the Resources Tab. The guide will be linked in the Resources Tab which is included on each event landing page. The guide contains the agenda, PowerPoint presentations and handouts for all sessions. Bios for the facilitators are also included.  

To avoid missing any content during the first event, please be sure to download these documents prior to the start of the first event. The facilitators will refer to this guide during all live event days. If you plan to print the guide, you may wish to print in grayscale instead of color.
