Webinars/Delivery details

When you register for one of my webinars, you get:

Webinar materials in PDF format

Every webinar is delivered with help of high-quality animated slides. After registering for a webinar, you’ll be able to download a watermarked PDF version of the webinar materials.

Some webinars include additional documentation, for example, a recommended reading list or a constantly-expanding Frequently Asked Questions document (see the complete list of webinar materials).

Immediate access to current materials and past recordings

All webinars are recorded on our WebEx server. The recordings of all past sessions and current PDF materials are available to attendees immediately after registration through the on-line Webinar Management System (check the date of last recording and number of recordings available for your webinar).

When you’re attending the first session of a new webinar, the past recordings are obviously not available. You can still download draft materials are uploaded weekly during the development process.

The materials and past recordings help can be used by attendees of live WebEx sessions to prepare their questions in advance. They can also ask questions prior to the live session if they need answer before the session start.

I’m constantly upgrading, revising and amending the webinar materials. The latest copy of the materials is uploaded to the Webinar Management System at least two days before the session starts (see the complete list of webinar materials).

WebEx recordings are streamed from the WebEx server. Attendees behind tightly-controlled firewalls or proxy servers might have problems accessing them.

Live interactive session in a WebEx classroom

Webinars are delivered in a WebEx classroom using one-way Voice-over-IP voice conferencing solution. During the live session, you’ll be able to ask questions at any time; most of them are answered (sometimes with extensive explanation) immediately, during a break or after the presentation. Sometimes you’ll receive answers to in-depth questions in a follow-up e-mail or as part of an updated Frequently Asked Questions document.

If you cannot attend the WebEx session you’ve registered for, ask for a free seat in one of the upcoming sessions of the same webinar.

You just need a working web browser to attend the WebEx session. Depending on the actual platform used, you might need Java or a custom applet downloaded from WebEx web server.

Please check the WebEx system requirements well before the session starts and prepare for the WebEx session. You’ll be able to enter the classroom at least 20 minutes prior to the start of the session; you might want to be early if you use a rare operating system.

According to WebEx support documentation, you need an Internet connection with at least 128 kbps spare downstream bandwidth; 256 kbps will make the experience more enjoyable.

You might also want to review WebEx traffic flow requirements if your organization runs a tightly-controlled firewall

Recording of your WebEx session

Webinars are recorded on the WebEx server; the recordings are made available to all the attendees within 24 hours after the webinar.

WebEx recordings are video recordings with animated slides, add-on drawings made during the WebEx session and audio from the presenter. The recordings are streamed from the WebEx server; links to them are available in the on-line Webinar Management System.

Complete sets of sample router configurations

Some webinars include complete tested sets of router configurations. The configurations are downloaded in a gzipped TAR archive; configurations for each scenario are in a separate folder. Each folder also contains a diagram of the logical topology used in the scenario (you can find out the webinars that include router configurations in the complete list of webinar materials).

Frequently Asked Questions document

Some webinars include a Frequently Asked Questions document. This document is updated after each session to include questions asked by the attendees during the session. New versions of this document are automatically available to attendees of past sessions.

Updates to the webinar materials

You’ll be able to access new recordings and updated materials for the webinar you’ve attended for at least 12 months after your registration date.

Updated materials and recordings of new sessions are automatically available to you in the on-line Webinar Management System.
