Liaisons, please register participants by e-mailing participate@nitle.org.)
If no units are currently available, your liaison--following campus policy--may purchase them on your behalf or may recommend that you or your department purchase them. If you or your department chooses to purchase program units for your use, please make the purchase and register for this program by sending an e-mail message to participate@nitle.org, including the program title and your name, job title, and e-mail address.

Please note that MIV is most effective with a 1:1 ratio between participant and MIV seat (each "seat" is equivalent to one laptop or desktop computer). Participants are therefore encouraged to join the program as individuals using their own computers.
To ensure a positive participation experience in this online program, participants who are new to multipoint interactive videoconferencing (MIV) are encouraged to pursue basic training in the use of MIV prior to participating in this program. Training options include:
Both training options will help new and newer users of MIV feel comfortable within the virtual MIV environment, learn how to use its interactive tools, and otherwise learn how to participate and contribute successfully within MIV.
