International Participants
Please note: the GoToWebinar confirmation email for live eCasts also provides call in information for most non-US locations. Simply click on the link, “Calling from another country?” to obtain
the call-in number for your country. If your country is not listed, you will need to use your computer speakers (VoIP).
eCast Single Viewers and Group Viewing Coordinators will be provided via email all eCast materials/handouts the day prior to the live program date. If it is not available the day prior it will be available in the GoToWebinar platform during the live program under “handouts” as well as in the AABB Education Platform after the live program has occurred. The handout can be used to take notes throughout the program and draft questions to submit during the question and answer session.
For on-demand eCasts, the handout(s) is available on the AABB Education Platform for registered participants.
As a Group Viewing Coordinator, you play an integral and critical role in managing an AABB live or on-demand eCast. Due to COVID-19, AABB has changed the process for access for our live eCasts for group viewing:
Approximately 1 week and 1 hour prior to the eCast, registered single viewers and Group Viewing Coordinators will be emailed instructions to complete the registration process for the eCast. Everyone will be required to “sign up” on the GoToWebinar platform. You must complete the GoToWebinar registration to participate on the eCast. You will be provided a link and required to enter your name, email address and organization. Once signed up, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the eCast that is unique to you. Reminder emails from GoToWebinar with log in information will be provided again 1 day and 1 hour prior to the eCast once signed up in GoToWebinar.
Distribution of the GoToWebinar link is strictly prohibited. Only one participant registration/log-on is allowed per single viewer or group viewing registration. AABB reviews attendance participation and individuals/groups will be billed at the full price
of an eCast if logged on but have not registered.
On-Demand eCasts are housed on the AABB Education Platform. Access instructions will be provided via email approximately 7-10 business days after the live program has occurred and the on-demand version is available. If registering after the live program date has occurred and the on-demand program is available, access is provided immediately via the AABB Education Platform for single viewers and access will be provided via email within 1-2 business days for group viewers. In general, on-demand eCasts are available for access for up to three years from when the live program occurred.
Single Viewer On-Demand eCast is available for the registrant to access the on-demand version of the eCast. Once registered and access is provided, registered participants will have up to three years from the live program date (applicable to most on-demand eCasts) to access and view the program. On-Demand eCasts are available for three years from the live program date at which time the program is no longer available for viewing.
Group Viewing On-Demand eCast is available for the registered group/facility to access the program unlimited times for up to three years from the live program date. Access is provided via email and duration of access is dependent on when a group/facility registers. A single log-in will be provided to the Group Viewing Coordinator. Group Viewing Coordinators can provide the facility access information to their team. Each participant can log on, watch the video and submit an attendance log to eLearning@aabb.org. If a participant also attended the live program, that participant cannot earn credit for the on-demand eCast (double credits is not allowed). By submitting the attendance log, the participant and/or group viewing coordinator attests that each participant watched the presentation in its entirety. Once AABB receives the attendance log, each participant listed will be emailed a link to access the single viewer program to submit an evaluation and claim CE/CME credit. See Continuing Education Credit Certificates below for certificate availability.
Please take a moment prior to an eCast to View the System Requirements for GoToWebinar. You can also Join a Test Session to make sure you will be able to access the live eCast. If you experience issues prior to or during the eCast please email the AABB eLearning team at eLearning@aabb.org.
Continuing education credit certificates will be provided as applicable:
Due to limited AABB conference room availability to broadcast an eCast along with an effort to make it fair and equitable for members not located near the AABB office, AABB will no longer offer the ability for an AABB member to attend an eCast at the AABB office.
Outside recording of an eCast by individuals or facilities is strictly prohibited. AABB eCasts and materials are protected by copyright with all rights reserved. The Adobe Acrobat Reader installation file is the property of Adobe Systems Incorporated.
