We are kicking off our support for the KAREN community in 2009 by bringing you a training session on 'How to run a video conference'. Join us this Wednesday for practical hints and tips for running a successful video conference.

Video conferencing is revolutionising the way people are communicating over distance. Like with any new enabling technology, there are learnings and challenges to be had along the way. This session will provide advice on how to get the best from your video conferencing experience, from room set-ups and managing technology failures to VC etiquette.

Your presenter

This video conference is a repeat of a successful session held in December 2008.
