FAQ
A webinar is a class that you view from your computer. You can hear the speaker and see their computer screen just as you would in a classroom setting. You are able to type in your questions, and sometimes you can even ask questions live via your microphone.
On the Upcoming Webinars page, click the orange "Register for free" button on the card of the webinar you wish to join. Fill in your name, email, and country, and then click "Register". You will then receive an email with instructions on how to join the live webinar.
To participate (watch and listen) in a live webinar, we recommend the following: Computer with high-speed Internet and speakers. If you want to ask a question verbally during the webinar, we recommend that you use a USB-powered headset. Otherwise, you are welcome to type your questions into the chat area of your webinar's control panel. Test your connection here. Click here for the system requirements for Mac OS, Linux, Google Chrome OS, or Windows.
We understand that a live webinar may not always fit into your schedule. That's why we make the recording available to view for free for the next 7 days! During that period, you can watch it as many times as you like, pause it, and take notes. Of course, members have unlimited access to all of the materials, including the instructor's handouts, for the duration of their membership.
On the Webinar Library page, click the relevant webinar card. Recorded webinars are available to view for free for about a week after the live session. Members can view the available webinars and download the accompanying handouts without time limits.
Yes! Most of our live webinars are free. The recordings are also free for at least a week after the live webinar's conclusion. Occasionally, we host bonus live webinars for members only.
Most of the time the chat area is available to live viewers, and you can type any questions you have there. Keep in mind, however, that since most webinars have 1,000 live viewers, the speaker may not be able to answer all the questions. Sometimes the webinar's moderator will turn on the microphone option so you can ask questions using your microphone.
Most webinars are 90 minutes in length – 60 minutes of presentation time, a few minutes for door prizes and announcements, and any remaining time is used for the Question and Answer session.
In many cases, a syllabus will become available for download a few days before the webinar. You'll find a link to it on the webinar card in the Upcoming Webinars section of the site, or on the recorded webinar page, below the video.
Door prizes are often available during the live webinars. You only need to be present during the door prize time to be eligible to win.
You will receive an email the day following the live webinar with a link to view the webinar's recording.
We recommend joining the webinar 15–20 minutes before start time to secure your spot. Spaces are limited and filled on a first-come, first-serve basis.

First, check your spam folder to make sure the email wasn't flagged and sent there automatically. If you still can't find it, add GoToWebinar.Notifications@logmein.com to your approved email addresses and try registering again. If this doesn't work, contact your ISP (internet service provider) and request that they add the email address of customercare@gotowebinar.com to their whitelist. If this doesn't work, contact GoToWebinar at 1-833-851-8340 and ask them to check their "Bounce List" list to ensure your email address is not on it. When GoToWebinar receives three undeliverable emails back from an email address their system automatically adds the email to this list, and no longer sends emails to it. If your email is on this list, ask them to remove it.
