What’s a Webinar?

A Webinar is a live training event presented over the telephone, with accompanying handouts online. It provides you with the educational value of a conference session, but without the hassle and expense of travel. A live Webinar also provides the opportunity to interact with the presenter during the question and answer period.

With ADEC’s Webinar offerings, you’ll hear renowned experts in the field of death education and bereavement share their knowledge via telephone while following along with an online slide presentation.

Bring your entire team to the table and learn during the live presentation, for one low price. Can’t make the regularly-scheduled date and time for a Webinar, but still want training and CE credits? Purchase a recording of the Webinar; watch and listen to it a time that’s convenient for you. You’ll still earn continuing education credits with the recorded version.

ADEC Webinars are for:  Nurses, grief counselors, therapists, teachers, school counselors, hospice workers, clergy and social workers, psychologists, funeral directors, crisis intervention specialists, mental health professionals, suicidologists, death educators and anyone working closely with the dying or bereaved.
