This low per council fee gives everyone within council access to this webinar. Note you only need to register your council once and this link can then be shared around your council.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Although this webinar is priced per council it is available to view on multiple devices so we encourage individuals to register so that they receive the link and login details directly - we only invoice the council once. As the first individual registration from each council 'triggers' the purchase if you are unsure if your council, or someone from your council, has registered please email webinars@taituara.org.nz to confirm.
We will send out the link with login instructions to everyone who has registered the day before each webinar.
Recordings of this webinar series will be made available to all those individuals that have registered for the live webinar.
