After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. Once registered, you should be able to attend any of the meetings. It's best to participate as a video call and call in about 5 minutes before, just to ensure it's all working for you. Call or Text me by phone at that point with problems. I recommend attending by video participation for best results, as viewing the slides and seeing each other is helpful to the process. A copy of the PowerPoint slides can be made available upon request. Please contact me with any questions/problems.
