. . . ASAD Online Training Series (OTS)

Details Descriptions Schedule

Signup: ASAD(Lt) users can signup for the conferences they would like to attend. This will be on a first-come, first-serve basis. Signup for conference(s) by email: ASAD(Lt) Training or call (352) 383-4191

Requirements & Limitations:

1. You must have a high-speed (DSL, Cable, T1, etc.) connection to the internet. Dial-up connections are not fast enough for this use.
2. There is no cost for the conferences but you must have an active ASAD(Lt) technical support agreement(s) for your ASAD(Lt) Licenses. Also, there is no cost to you for the GoToMeeting.com connection.
3. Each conference attendee is limited to only one computer connection for each conference. This is because GoToMeeting.com limits the number of attendees (internet connections) to 10 per conference. If several individuals from the same office (but using different computers) were to all join the conference, they would reduce the connections available to others wanting to join in.
4. Even though you are limited to one computer in your office, you are welcome to have other ASAD users be present for the conference. Keep in mind, there may be up to 10 conference attendees all on the same conference phone call, so try to have any questions/comments presented by just one person at your location.
