Go to the main menu.
Click on '+ New webinar' to create a new webinar. The first step of the webinar wizard will be opened immediately. This step is called 'Create'.
Select the type of webinar you would like to create.
Live webinar
During a live webinar you’ll be presenting yourself in front of the camera in real-time. You’ll need a computer with an internet connection, a webcam, microphone and the Google Chrome browser (as a host). You don’t need to download any software or install anything.
You can also use a live webinar as an online session room. Select ‘Interactive session’ after choosing a live webinar during the webinar creation. A live webinar can also be configured to use these settings after publishing it.
Automated webinar
An automated webinar is a pre-recorded webinar that is broadcasted as if it were live. Attendees experience a live webinar, despite the fact they’re watching a recording. You, as the presenter, can kick back and relax during the broadcast. It is, however, possible to answer viewer questions directly in the chat.
This pre-recorded webinar is auto-played on set times you planned in advance.
Attendees register for the webinar and experience a live webinar. They’ll never know they are actually watching a video recording, unless you tell them.
On demand webinar
An on demand webinar is a recording of a webinar that’s made available for a certain time period. People can register for it and will get to see the webinar recording immediately. They have the option to pause, fast forward, and go back in the webinar as well, unless you choose to turn off the scrollbar.
Change webinar type
You have scheduled a live webinar, but the presenter is not available at the scheduled time. A solution is to change your webinar to an automated webinar. In order to do this, follow the steps below.
Click on 'Edit webinar' and then go to 'General'.
Under 'Live' you will see the option 'Edit'.
Click 'Edit' then adjust the webinar type and make sure to press 'Save'. Make sure to also add the recording to your automated webinar. Click here for the instructions.
