How do ASDN Webinar Series Work?
Our webinar series are designed to bring you access to national level education experts online. As a participant, you will view the presentation on a computer, smart phone or tablet.
Can the audience ask questions?
You can absolutely ask questions during the live programs! You’ll also have the opportunity to submit questions once the program has started by sending a chat message directly to the presenter. Additionally, interactive polling questions woven through each program will give you an idea of what your peers and fellow program participants are thinking.
If you access the program through ASDN’s recorded webinar archive, you won’t be able to ask your own questions, but will have access to the questions and answers from the live broadcast.

More Frequently Asked Questions

What if I can’t attend the live broadcast?
If your schedule doesn’t allow you to participate in a live broadcast, ASDN makes it convenient for you to get the education you need through its growing library of recorded webcasts that are available on-demand. Archives of each program will be available after the live events.
