Our live webinars use the Zoom Conferencing solution as the training platform. The solution works with virtually all computers, and sign-up is free.
Log in to the Learning Management System at mylms.bccpa.ca with your CPABC Online Services account.
Once you are in the LMS, click on the blue Go to your Courses & Materials button, which will take you to your Learning Center. Upcoming live webinars will be listed under the Current tab. Find the live webinar and then click the blue Attend button next to it. The webinar will open in a new Zoom window.
You have two options. The first option is to listen through your computer’s audio system. The second option is to dial in to the online training session using your phone. Follow these instructions on the Zoom website to test your audio.
While you can type questions and comments in the Chat window, many instructors also welcome verbal discussion, particularly where webinars are more interactive by nature. This is particularly relevant when breakout rooms are used for smaller group discussions. To derive the most benefit from live webinars, participants are encouraged to have a microphone on their device. If your device does not have one, you can also dial-in by phone.
Yes you can - follow these instructions on the Zoom website.
The CPABC PD Team has also produced a short How-to video on Zoom features that are most frequently used during our live webinars. If you are unfamiliar with Zoom features, we encourage you to watch this video.
You can participate using an iPad or other tablet – whichever device you use, ensure that your screen is large enough to clearly view the shared presentation slides, as well as the chat window and other features in order to obtain an effective learning experience. We highly discourage using cell phones for the viewing of live webinars, but you can call in using your cell phone for the audio portion if you don’t have a microphone on your desktop or laptop.
You may join the online training session approximately 15 minutes prior to the start of the live webinar. However, please ensure you are able to access your Online Services account prior to the webinar start date. If you encounter any access issues then, contact pdreg@bccpa.ca as soon as possible during business hours so that we can help you resolve your access issue before the day of the webinar.
Please read the Instructions for Zoom Attendees prior to attending your live webinar.
