FORMAT OF THE SESSION
This is not a “webinar” meaning that you will be engaging in live conversations with real human beings who share your challenges. You are expected to be heard and seen throughout the session. As with any remote meeting, each participant of the workshop brings part of the meeting space with them. Please help yourself and others by ensuring you:

– Call from a quiet place
– Have a stable broadband internet connection. Optimum bandwidth, i.e. internet speed on your side will be at least 10 Mbps download / upload. You can measure it using speedtest.net.
– Use a headset
– Turn your video camera on

To optimize your set-up, follow these suggestions on how to have a great video conferencing setup.
