For everyone who couldn't get a seat at our upcoming webinar...
by Bruce Williams March 27, 2020

March 27, 2020

To all of the many very interested parties who were unable to get a seat in our upcoming webinar on "Updates of Clostridial Disease".... This webinar filled to overflow in approximately 20 mins. (I do hope that everyone who snagged a seat plans on showing up or you have stolen a seat from someone who really wanted one.) For those of you who couldn't get a seat - not to worry, as the webinar will be pre-recorded and uploaded to the Foundation YouTube channel concurrently. For those of you who wonder why the Foundation doesn't have more seats available... a) We are pre-recording it and it will be available to everyone at no charge (didn't I just say that?) b) The 30 minutes of Q and A at the end would be absolute CHAOS with more than 100 people. c) With literally over TWO HOURS of experience in tele-education, we are learning this as we go along. We have no tele-education budget, we are handing out course refunds like hotcakes, and right about now we are the only vet path organization that is offering anything telewhatever. So we ask that you are patient as we adjust to a rapidly changing paradigm. If we find that limiting live seats to these webinars is a serious mistake, I promise we will fix that going forward.
