The Ohio Department of Education has decided to use the software Elluminate to conduct their web conferences. Elluminate will allow faculty and staff members to attend training session and professional development seminars over the web. By clicking on the link and then clicking on the Elluminate icon, you will have access to the Elluminate software through your web browser. You can then find your web conference from a list of that day’s scheduled conferences and log in using the password given to you when you register for a conference. This link will give you the ability to attend web conferences hosted by the Ohio Department of Education. It will not give you the ability to create your own web conferences.
