Instructions for New Tele-‐Town Hall Platform
This guide demonstrates the simple, one-‐time setup for our new town hall forum in an easy to follow, step-‐by-‐step fashion for PCs. We are excited about the additional features and flexibility this system provides us in how we reach out to connect with you, and we hope you will take the time to walk through this transition with us.
To attend a session, you'll first need to register using the Registration URL in your email invitation. After you register, you'll receive a confirmation email with information on how to join the session when it's time.
1) Click the Registration website link in your invitation email. It will take you to our
registration page.
2) Fill out all required fields in the registration form and click Register.
3) Once you've successfully registered, you'll see a Registration Confirmation page and receive a confirmation email with information on how to join the session.
4) When it's time for the session, just click the Join URL in your confirmation email. Don't share the Join URL with anyone – it's unique to you.

For PC:
1) You have three participation
options for the webcast: a. Telephone in to listen
only with no option to ask questions by dialing the phone number and using the access code in your confirmation email.
b. Telephone in with your unique Audio PIN to ask questions by installing the program and joining the town hall to access your unique Audio PIN.
c. Join the Town Hall on a computer to listen, text questions, and if your system includes a microphone, ask live questions.
2) For options (b) and (c) above, click on the link in your confirmation email. When
you click to join the webinar, the installation package (including applications and plugins) will be downloaded onto your computer. By leaving the applications installed and the plugin enabled, you will be able to join future webinars more quickly and avoid the extended download process.
You must download the application to take part in the town hall.
