What is a Webinar?

A webinar (short for web-based seminar) is a presentation, lecture, workshop or seminar that is transmitted over the web.  A key webinar feature is the interactive elements – the ability to give, receive and discuss information in real time.  Webinars have both a web and an audio portion.

Participation in this webinar is free and open to all PCIA Partners. If you are not yet a Partner, please join now at www.PCIAonline.org/BecomeAPartner.

For the web portion of the webinar, a high-speed internet connection is required. A dedicated phone line is also required to call into the audio portion of the webinar. Additional log in and call in information will be provided upon registration.
