Meeting time is 3:00 p.m.; however, please join a bit earlier (5-10 minutes) so that any technical issues can be resolved before the meeting begins. Some have experienced 10-15 minute delays when first starting the link to get all applications (sound/video/chat) running.

We wanted to ensure that you were able to use Webex on your systems. Some users have had more success using Chrome web browser rather than Explorer.
