What is a Webinar?

A Webinar is a relatively short (1 to 2 hours), live, interactive presentation using the Internet and telephone conferencing lines. The learner has handouts downloaded from the Internet, sees the presenter’s slides, etc. on screen, hears the presentation over the telephone connection, and can have a moderator submit questions over the Internet.

careLearning Webinars are very cost-effective. Hospitals may sign up to have a group of people participate and pay only one fee for the group. The price is quoted as “per telephone connection.”

To participate, a hospital needs:

• A room large enough to accommodate all participants. The number of participants is limited only by the size of the room.
• An Internet connection in the room with a computer and projector.
• A telephone connection in the room with a speaker system so everyone can hear the presentation.
