Technical Requirements for Webcast

• Participants will require a high-speed internet connection.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you have experienced technical issues with viewing the webcast here are some recommendations:

• Try a different web browser.
• If you are having video playback issues (freezing or choppiness) use a hard line connection. A wireless connection may delay the speed of the video transmissions if it is weak. 
• Access the webcast, pause the recording and wait until it has downloaded. This can alleviate video playback issues.
