Practice Sessions
We will be using BlueJeans for the sessions. It was chosen because it is easy to use, is accessible by phone, and is supported by Thompson Rivers University staff if problems arise. It does have some limitations, we are working on creating clear instructions for presenters and attendees. You can download the program from https://www.bluejeans.com. You can also download an app on your mobile device.
