Hi Ken,

I read somewhere that GMU will post an archive on their Training page<http://ati.gmu.edu/training/accessiblemasonwebinars.cfm>. I missed it, as well.

Thanks,

Ron, the demonstrations will actually be handled by the presenters. That is a definitely a valid concern though, as many people are curious as to what the experience is like from a user's perspective. Nonetheless, we will leave some time for Q&A so that people have an opportunity to have some of their questions answered. More than the live demos though, the hope is that information is shared about the workarounds that can be provided, who to work with/contact for the remediation of issues, and what to expect in months ahead. These were some of the things that we were curious about internally and expect that others have wanted these questions answered as well.

Kara will actual users be demonstrating this or is it just a Pearson dog and pony?
