Webinars

A Webinar is a live presentation conducted over the Internet, allowing attendees to view the presenter's slide presentation or computer screen in real time on their computer desk top while listening to the presenter speak through the telephone or through the computer via use of a headset or computer speakers.

For more information about web conferencing and webinars refer to the June 2010 edition of ExtensionNet.

APEN Webinars have been hosted by APEN member Leanne Isaacson since 2016. They are held on the third Monday of every second month at 2pm AEST/AEDT.
