Small things you can do to help us, and other participants make the most of the event

* We have long waiting lists for all of our events. If you cannot attend, please give us 24 hours notice to allow others to participate. No shows will be given lower priority at future THCU events.

*On large teleconferences such as this one, background noise can be a problem. Even whispers and shuffling papers can be distracting for participants and the facilitator. To deal with this, we ask that participants mute their line after signing on. This can be done using *6 to mute. If you have a questions or comment, it is *6 again to unmute

*When you sign in to live meeting, it is helpful if you type in your full name. This helps us cross check participants with the names of those that registered, and helps if there is more than one person on the call with the same name. If you are part of a group listening in, please put your organization name, with (group) in brackets after the organization name in the name spot in the sign-in.

*EVALUATION: We will send you a link to complete an evaluation about this event, immediately following the webinar. Please take the time to complete this short survey, to help us continue to improve our training efforts. If you do not want to receive an email with the evaluation link, please let us know as soon as possible.

Thank-you. We look forward to ’seeing’ you online!
