About Webinar Recordings

What Is A Webinar?

Short for Web-based seminar, a webinar is a presentation, lecture, workshop or seminar that is transmitted over the Web. A key feature of a Webinar is its interactive elements -- the ability to give, receive and discuss information. Contrast with Webcast, in which the data transmission is one way and does not allow interaction between the presenter and the audience. Source: Webopedia.

These online seminars use Webex to make them actual, live interactive learning experiences. Participants were able to ask the instructor questions and get answers in real time. The instructor was able to conduct polls and ask questions. These types of online courses have a much higher impact than simply reading material on the web. Webinars offer exceptional convenience and are very cost-effective. A free player is included with your purchase, allowing you to play, pause, or move quickly forward and backward in the recording.

If you have high-speed Internet access (minimum 128 kbps) you can see and hear any of these presentations immediately by purchasing online access. Online access permits you to view each webinar as many times as you like, at any time, or download for playback on your own PC.
