[Atkin, Evette (MDE)]

Greetings!

The July free library related webinars listing is now available.

HIGHLIGHTS:
Tuesday, July 12 (12-1 pm)
Webinar Surveys: How to Get Useful Feedback from Your Audience (Idealware) http://idealware.org/online-training Webinars are challenging-even for the most experienced presenters-because you can't read eye contact and body language to let you know what's working and what isn't. However, a well-designed post-training survey can provide valuable feedback that you can use to incrementally improve your online presentations. Join us for a free session where we walk you through how to develop and analyze surveys for webinars. Over the course of the hour you'll learn what questions to ask and how to structure your questions to get insightful, actionable feedback.
