Webinars Calendar

When planning to attend a webinar, members should check the location and time zone from where the webinar is broadcast. For all other locations, they should calculate the actual time. Also members should be aware of the fact that daylight saving time does not begin and end at the same time in different countries.

If they are not sure, members can use this Time Zone Converter or an equivalent tool.

Members should login at least 15 minutes earlier to check their connection, hardware, and software and make sure that they are ready to attend the talk when it begins.

  NOTE: This webinar was co-organized by Toronto Section Signals and Computational Intelligence Joint Chapter and IEEE R7. At the time of the event, the IEEE CIS Webinars Subcommittee did not exist yet, but Subcommittee members Bruno N. Di Stefano and Azadeh Kushki began their activity at that time. This webinar was attended by 109 members and was very successful.
