We’ve developed our ADSO webinar programme as part of our offer for our members and also to help people in the democracy sector learn from, and connect with, each other. These are all free for everyone, but are kindly sponsored by suppliers within the sector.
Our webinars are held virtually using GoToWebinar. Please register for the events beforehand. We’ll add details of each event to this page, including a link to the registration form, once these are confirmed.
Important information:
Please note that you will need to be able to login in to GoTo webinar in order to access the webinars. If you are logging in from your workplace, please check ahead of the webinar that GoTo has not been blocked by your council or organisation. Otherwise you can log on from your mobile.
