What is a webinar?
The webinar closely simulates a lecture-based teaching experience. The speaker can interact with the audience, just as in a classroom setting.
This webinar comprises a 45-minute clinical case discussion followed by a 15-minute question-and-answer session. During the webinar, you will be asked to share your opinion on issues related to the topic using interactive polls.
All participants will be able to hear the speakers and see the slides throughout the presentation. As a participant you will be able to pose questions or discuss ideas with the other participants via the text chat facility and the speaker will respond to the questions via the microphone.
