AUSIT has been receiving email queries about the PD event scheduled for 16 July (medical specialisations). As an event of this type has not often been run previously, the following information is intended to clarify aspects that it was not possible to include in the initial eFlash for reasons of space.
· Important: unavailability on the scheduled date. People who do not expect to be able to view the live-streaming on the scheduled date (absence, other commitments, unreliable internet connection, etc) should not register for this event. Instead, see the information below about subsequently purchasing a recording of the event.
· Link for live-streaming. All those who have registered as ‘participating by live-streaming at another location’ will receive the link to that live-stream by email once registrations have closed on Wed 13 Jul. They will also be given a phone number to which questions for the two presenters can be texted. The moderator will attempt to ensure that there is a balance between questions from the immediate audience and the live-streaming audience during the 15 minutes allocated for each speaker.
· Location for live-streaming. The intention is that most live-stream participants will view it via the internet at a location of their own choosing; in effect, this will be a form of webinar. The various state branches have also been given the option of organising a public location in their capital city for a ‘group’ viewing using a projector. Some have indicated their intention to do this, but not all: if you would like your branch to do this, you should contact them directly to indicate your interest. However, such ‘group’ viewings will depend on the availability of suitable equipment and inexpensive venues, and therefore cannot be guaranteed.
· Cost. Both attendance (in Melbourne) and live-streaming elsewhere are being offered at the same scale of prices: $40 AUSIT / ASLIA members, $60 non-members, $20 student members, and $30 student non-members.
· Recording. Auslan Connections will also be recording the entire live-stream; once this has been edited and uploaded to the AUSIT website (which may require several days) it will be available to purchase for the same scale of prices as above, in the same way as other such products have previously been made available on the AUSIT website. Those who have registered for this event (attendance or live-stream) will not receive any discount on the subsequent purchase of the recording. A further eFlash will be sent out once the recording is available.
Regards,
Dave Deck
Vic/Tas branch chairman
