About Pre-recorded Web Seminars

In today's work environment, there is limited time devoted to training. ISA now offers you the option of accessing a Web seminar at a time that is convenient for you. ISA's Pre-recorded Web seminars give you the same benefits as attending the live seminar broadcast, including hearing the instructor while simultaneously viewing the PowerPoint presentation. The only difference between the two is that the Pre-recorded seminars do not allow for participation in a live Q & A session.
