About 2022 CyberSeminar

These are Webinar sessions which you watch and listen to sitting at your own computer. Not every CyberSeminar is an Institute course. The fee for these sessions is $59 per organization- but for that fee you can share the GoToWebinar link with many people, within your organization, as you would like. IFM enrollees and anyone not enrolled and wanting future credit for the course MUST utilize the personalized URL provided by GoToWebinar   You must participate in the live CyberSeminar AND LOG IN INDIVIDUALLY TO GOTOWEBINAR in order to receive credit - credit cannot be issued for purchasing recordings of the session (which are typically made available, for purchase, to members). 
 
Registration is a two step process: First you must register through the IAFE, once you have registered and made payment you will receive a confirmation email. The confirmation email will provide you with the GoToWebinar registration link. This is the link you need to share with others, from your organization, so they can log-in.  

You will need to use your Member ID/password to register online through the IAFE.
