Our online lectures use Zoom Webinar technology which allows all viewers to see and hear the presenter but not see or hear the other attendees. When you first join one of our lectures, you’ll enter the waiting room.

When the lecture is just about to begin, you will see the presenter and their screen.

We invite all attendees to submit questions at any time during the lecture by using the Q&A button at the bottom of your screen. Our Road Scholar moderator and the lecturer will review all of the questions and answer them at the end of the lecture. Unfortunately, the lecturer may not have time to answer all of the questions.
