We will offer the chance to have a free consulting session with experts to a group of randomly selected publishers that have attended all sessions within a given curriculum and answered our surveys. If you miss a session, you will not be eligible for this premium experience.
All workshops are recorded and accessible for on-demand viewing on this page. Just click the "watch on-demand" button after the event. You'll still need to register to watch events on-demand. If you make up for a missed workshop by watching the on-demand session, you are still eligible for the free consulting session.

TECHNICAL
You will need the livestream link and a device such as a mobile, tablet, laptop or desktop computer with a good internet connection. If you are in a busy environment, you may need a pair of headphones to listen in.
Please check the bottom left hand corner of the YouTube video to see if you may have accidentally muted yourself. YouTube remembers the last setting for your volume when you previously watched a Youtube video.
Try refreshing or reloading the page to see if it works, or if you have other too many applications or other video windows open, try closing them. If the issue persists, open up YouTube on another browser and check if you can view other YouTube videos. If you are not able to view other Youtube videos, this means there may be some issues with watching Youtube videos on your machine. If you are able to view other Youtube videos, this may mean that your machine is not able to watch videos that are live streamed.
Try updating the Quality settings on the Youtube controls near the bottom of the content window.
