HOW IT WORKS:

[b] Gototmeeting is a video streaming system that allows , the participant, to attend a weekend,
dyadic training program, view live, hear the presenter in real time, view the related power-point
presentation, AND ask questions if you need further clarification on any concept. Because you
can participate from the comfort of your own office and living room, you do not need to travel to
the reception center except during scheduled test/examination and or group practical
presentation of assignments as situation dictates.

WHAT YOU NEED

  have this installed, if you can listen to music or You Tube video, then you have sound
  card or can hook on to GoToMeeting through the special code to be generated by ITC-

•  A webcam and microphone (this allow you see the presenter, other students and to ask
  questions and interact with them, most newer computers have this built-in), a high-speed
  internet connection.
• We recommend that students have at least a 5MBPS upload and download speed.
