What Is a Princeton TeleWeb Activity?
A TeleWeb activity is a live presentation offered through the internet, viewable from your computer, that provides the opportunity for participants to interact with expert clinical faculty in real time.
Participants can interact with faculty during the presentation by answering live polling questions online that influence the course of the presentation and by posing questions to the faculty via online chat or asking questions live via the telephone during the Q&A session at the conclusion of the activity.
System requirements for Princeton TeleWeb activities include:
- A computer with internet access [Note: Activity is viewable over dial-up or broad band connection]
- Speakers and/or headphones if listening via computer
- Telephone access is required only if participants choose to pose questions over the telephone during the Q&A
Instructions on how to participate in the TeleWeb will be emailed to participants upon registration and will be available at www.princetoncme.com. Please call 609-371-1137 or email info@princetoncme.com with any questions regarding TeleWeb technical requirements or accessibility.
