Overview
Spread out over five business days, most seminar
sessions are asynchronous (not everyone is attending at the same time) allowing
you to attend at any time that fits your schedule, day or night.
The online seminar begins with participant networking and introductions
and two keynote “speeches”. Each day the
featured speaker gives a presentation and you are provided with the opportunity
to continue dialogue and engage in “breakout groups” from the previous days’ events.
An open forum for networking and brainstorming provides further opportunities
to obtain new models, tools, and approaches for identifying, assessing, and selecting
the right collaborative technologies and processes for your organization.
