How it Works
The live training class is broadcast directly to your
company using Citrix's www.gotomeeting.com.
All you need is a computer with a high speed internet connection and a
phone, or you can use VoIP with a headset and microphone. During each training
session you simply connect to the training seminar via the internet and you see
the trainer's computer in a window on your machine. If multiple students at your
company want to take the class (Note: Each participant must pay for the class)
you can simply hook up a projector to your computer so everyone in the room can
see. As the trainer steps through presentations and uses Visual Studio to create and
execute code samples you see it all as it is happening.
For audio hookup, you call into the specified phone number and join a
conference call where you can hear the trainer and vice versa, or you can use VoIP
and connect with a headset and microphone. To
minimize disruptions, you can post questions in a chat window for the
instructor to answer.
