Will this be recorded?  My dance card is filled for that day!

It will be recorded and I'll update the calendar listing inside the Impact Collaborative group when it is ready! Usually about 24 hours. 

how do get into the webinar

 

Kelly - the link takes you to the Impact Collaborative group here in Connect Extension available to eXtension members. This event is only for individuals from eXtension member institutions, and I believe that is why you are unable to get in to access the connection information. A listing of eXtension member institutions is available here

Ditto with Kelly Lafferty, I can't figure out how to get into the webinar

Kathrin - the top of the post:
