If you are unable to attend our presentations but would like to participate “live” from any location, some sessions will be set up to enable anyone to log-in from any computer, viewed by one person or projected for a group. Here is how it works:
First check with Kelly Bellmyer to determine if the option is available for the session you would like to attend from a remote connection. If your session is remote friendly, than:
- Please use this address to logon to our Adobe Connect Training http://kumed.adobeconnect.com/wims/
- Enter as GUEST and then type in your real name, or name of your group, in the textbox. (Examples: Sam Smith, MD; Sam @ the VA; Unit 51; or MedWest Clinic Staff ) The name you type will be how the speaker identifies you when responding to your question.
- We recommend a headset for this session to avoid audio issues. (What you will be broadcast are the speakers slides and the audio for the session, not video.)
- You will see an area for typing your questions in the bottom right corner of your screen. During most sessions, the questions will be answered at the end.
CE is not available from remote connection
