Scheduling webinars

 
Organising a webinar requires a lot of planning before and after the session. This section of the resources is for staff who are responsible for scheduling webinars to walk them through the process of using the GoToWebinar platform.  * To check if you have the proper system requirements to run GoToWebinar, click here.

Trainers or CET staff fill out the Book a webinar session form to register their request to run a webinar with Cochrane Training. Once the form is submitted someone from the Cochrane Administration team gets in touch and provides further details on setting up the webinar.
