    Five minutes before the scheduled webinar start time, dial the appropriate toll-free  or local phone number shown in the confirmation email sent to you on registration.

      Viewing the webinar on a PC or Mac® computer is easy. 

      Once you have registered, you can view the webinar at the scheduled time in two ways. You can click the "Join a webinar" button on the GESB website or the link in your confirmation email, which was automatically sent to you after registering.

      You do not need to pre-install any software prior to joining the webinar.

      The other way to join a webinar is to go to http://www.joinwebinar.com/, Then type or paste in the webinar ID provided in your confirmation email and enter your email address, click "Yes" or "Always" (or "Trust" on a Mac) if prompted to accept the download, and, if required, enter the webinar password provided by GESB.
