Events are live educational activities attended by learners virtually using a state of the art event platform. Webinars like "Grand Rounds" are built as hybrid live/online/asyncronous educational activities. In addition to the live event, the content is captured and made available for review at a later date by all registrants. One person registers and secures access to the event for his or her site. Up to 100 individuals will be able to claim credit for participation in the live event at each site.
Event costs reflect ASCLS member/non-member pricing. To become an ASCLS member and take advantage of these discounts, visit the ASCLS Membership Website.
