Elluminate & Webinar Materials

What is Elluminate?

We understand that the success of webinars depends on the usability (ease-of -use) and usefulness (functionality and productivity) of the technology. In an effort to ensure an accessible and positive online experience to everyone, we began using a new system in July 2010 — Elluminate, which features:

• Cross platform. Get same user experience whether using a Windows, Mac, etc.
• Optimized for low bandwidth. Interact with no lag time or garbled communication, regardless of Internet connection speed.
• Designed to enable all users to fully participate. Various features and functionality promote accessibility i.e., keyboard access to menus and dialogs, closed captioning, enlarged video, user-defined color, screenreader compatibility, and more.

Set-up of Webinar System & Multiple Participants

When you set-up the webinar system, especially if a location ("site") has multiple participants, show the webinar using one computer and an LCD projector, and also designate one individual to enter any comments and questions in the text chat area of the webinar system.

Captioning (Real Time) for Webinar

On the day of the webinar, a captioner transcribes the webinar information as it occurs (real time). No special equipment or software is needed; within Elluminate, the captioning window will display and can be "turned on" (or "off").

Education Credit (CEU & CRCC)

Many of our webinars offer the opportunity for education credit — review the requirements for continuing educations units (CEU credit) and clock hours for Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification (CRCC credit).

Each person who seeks education credit (e.g., CEU or CRCC) must have an Account Login or create a New Account; this same Account is used to register and seek credit for each event.
