Vivacious and Fun: Upping your Game with Virtual Visits

Oct 10, 2023

Online event

The hybrid model of in-person and virtual school visits is not going away. The good news is that, in many respects, online events can be better than in-person. They are less expensive for the purchasers, they are convenient and flexible, and they can reach a larger audience. But while there are many pros, online visits can fall flat if students are not engaged. This webinar demystifies the process of making virtual visits that are interactive and fun and that leave a lasting impression. This webinar with Ann McCallum Staats helps participants plan events that are vivacious and fun.
