BFA Online Seminar View File Files for the Seminar on 1/26/13 Rember the seminar starts At 7am mountain. Hello all, attached are the handouts for Saturday's Continuing Education Webinar (formerly known as online safety seminar.) This will begin at 7:00 am Mountain Time. If you have not paid for the seminar, you can call the BFA office at 515-961-8809 or go to http://www.bfa.net/osc2/product_info.php?products_id=108 to pay with your credit card. This will take you to checkout through paypal. If you do not have a paypal account, you can click on no account and pay with your credit card. We are excited this year that Aero-News will be broadcasting the seminar. This is a new partnership with the BFA and look forward to the possibilities. During the seminar, you can send questions for the presenters by sending an email to safetyseminarquestions@gmail.com. To access the seminar on the 26th go to http://aero-news.net/live/. I have been told that you will be able to access this through windows, mac, and IOS devices. If the first link does not work, you can also access it by going to http://www.livestream.com/aerotvnetwork If you would like to test your connection go to http://aero-news.net/live/. There are currently some commercials running. If you are able to see the commercials and hear sound you should be set for the presentation. If you are accessing the seminar from your tablet there is a livestream app that you can download and search for aero-news. Currently there is not anything playing and I was not able to test this to make 100% sure. The links for your tablet are https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/livestream/id379623629?mt=8 http://new.livestream.com/broadcast-live/android-viewing This year we will be trying something different regarding the test. During each presentation, there will be a phrase on the screen for a couple of minutes several times per presentation. There may be more than one phrase per presenter. You will need to write this phrase down and then at the end of the seminar the test will be the phrases per presentation. There will also be an evaluation form regarding the seminar with the test. You will receive credit for the seminar if you have paid your fees and taken the test with the evaluation form. You will have 72 hours from completing the seminar to send in the test and evaluation form. If you are watching the seminar as a group, each person will be emailed the link to the test and each person must complete the test. If you share an email address with a spouse that is also watching the seminar, you can put the spouses name in the comments section so you and your spouse will receive credit if both have paid for the seminar. Here is the schedule for the day. Please note the times below are in Mountain Time.
