Discussions are facilitated by the members of the discussion group and participants are encouraged to ask questions, share solutions, best practices and generally contribute to the dialogue. The Virtual Discussion Forum (VDF) is not recorded and provides an open and dynamic platform for participants to engage in real-time conversations without the worry of their interactions being recorded. 

Webinars

Webinars are scheduled presentations with a subject matter expert and an opportunity for Q&A. Webinars are recorded for viewing at a later time.
