Webinars are a great way to share large-scale training sessions to multiple team members across an organisation, it's a good way to share key information in engaging and fun sessions too!
Get started with a Webinar:
Select Webinar from the Studio (Or use the + Icon on the homepage).
2. Fill in the following fields of Step One, the Information step.
Webinar Name - the title of the content, searchable by assigned Users.
Webinar Summary - a brief description, visible on the content card.
Description - providing further detail about the Webinar session and adding any important links.
Channels - assign the class to the relevant Channel - usually based on the topics included.
Skills - map relevant Skills to your Webinar, so Users will know what Skills they'll gain, when attending.
Language - the language the Webinar will be held in. This can be viewed via the Dashboard data tables.
Collaborators - Contributors, Managers or Admins who can help you edit the content you're creating.
Cost Per Learner - if you want to make the Webinar into premium content, set a cost for Users to spend their Learning Budget towards.
Verifier - the subject-matter expert, responsible for checking the content based on the Verification Interval.
3. Set the Date & Time:
Live Class Duration - in increments of 30 mins
When do bookings close? - how many minutes a User can book a class before it starts.
Select Date and Time of Event - set the date and time slot of the course, and the region. You can also set a Recurring Event.
