FAQs for ECTA Videolinq (Videoconference) Workshops
What is a videolinq? Do I need to have a computer or special
equipment to attend?
A Videolinq is similar to a teleconference, except participants can
see the presenters and other participants at other sites. You don’t
need to bring along any IT equipment, all the equipment is in
regular use at the TAFE sites. You simply turn up and enjoy the
workshop.
Why isn’t there a workshop at a venue near me?
Due to increased demands on the TAFE Videolinq network, ECTA
has had to decrease the number of sites from 20 to 12. Every care
is taken to consider that there is a site as close to possible to
ECTA regional groups and regional members for each Videolinq
workshop. Sites are chosen on the basis of numbers in attendance
for previous workshops and are dependent on the availability of
the site for the date required. Each workshop is recorded, and a
DVD of the workshop is distributed to ECTA members.
Handouts/notes, if available, are provided on the day and later
posted to the ECTA web-site for general access via the Videolinq
Programs section.
How can I get the DVD of the workshop?
Only ECTA members are eligible to receive a copy of the DVD
from each Videolinq workshop. These DVD’s are distributed to
ECTA members with the EYC Journal. If you want a DVD and are
not a member, you are welcome to become one and receive both
the DVD and journal.
How can I get in touch with the workshop presenter/s?
Once a workshop has been presented, the contact details of those
presenters who provide their contact details for distribution will be
posted to the Videolinq section of the ECTA website
