Interactive Webinar Sessions

As means of adding additional interaction to webinars, Middletown Centre for Autism will be offering a range of webinar watch sessions, with internationally renowned speakers.
In a watch session, we will play a pre-recorded presentation and the speaker will be in attendance, as part of the session. Any questions you may have can be added to the Chat box. The speaker, then, can pause the video and answer the query or add additional explanation to the point being made, giving us all the opportunity to have advice and guidance clarified.
