    Is there a way to share a recorded class? 12-18-2008 12:54PM

  • Reply Joseph Wurcher replied...
    Marc: Yes there are multiple ways.
    If your organziation is on subscription, everyone in your firm can login to AUOL and has full access.
    All keynotes are available without login
    Stay tuned for upcoming promotion where AU attendees will be given passes to invite co-workers into AU Online and everything AUOL has to offer.
    Within the next few weeks, we plan to post links to AUOL which will allow you to download the recordings.

    Hope this answers your question, Marc.
