Every BARNA webinar uses the same joining link, so there is nothing to look up and no email to find. Bookmark this page, or save the link itself, and you are set for every webinar we run.
Or copy and paste this link straight into your browser:
The link never changes and never expires, so you can save it once and use it for every webinar we run.
The room is always open. You go straight in, with no waiting and nobody to let you through. Join at the date and time announced for each webinar and the speaker and chair will be there. If you open it at any other time you will simply find an empty room, which is normal and does not mean anything is wrong.
If Teams asks you to sign in, choose Continue on this browser and enter your name. You do not need a Teams account, and you do not need the Teams app installed.
Webinars are recorded, so that members who cannot make the live session can watch afterwards. Teams shows a notice on screen whenever recording is running.
Dates and speakers for upcoming webinars are announced on the homepage and by email. Recordings of past sessions are further down this page.
