  • If choosing to project the PowerPoint presentation for a group: securing a computer, LCD projector, and projection screen
  • If choosing the web cast option: securing and testing an internet connection in the room and compatible computer, monitor, LCD projector, etc.
• Downloading electronic course materials from the ASCP website 1-2 weeks prior to program date as instructed in the registration confirmation letter
• Thoroughly reading Seminar Manager Instructions included with electronic course materials

• Telephoning the electronic bridge 5-10 minutes before the program begins
• Acting as a facilitator to stimulate questions, and controlling the flow of questions from your site to the faculty during the question and answer session of each program
