Students can Stay Home without Skipping Class with Web Conferencing

The Conference Depot has expanded its university distance learning conference services, giving students more flexibility and universities more revenue.

The Conference Depot invites colleges and universities of every kind to consider online conferencing for student distance learning. By providing a cost benefit analysis, the Web conferencing company can prove that their conferencing services will actually increase revenues to schools through higher enrollment. The Conference Depot offers a special sign-up process so students, department heads and teachers can automatically receive their accounts. In addition, they can customize billing to individual departments or campuses.

The Conference Depot can handle any size of classroom population. Big events or presentations are managed with Web conferencing platforms in conjunction with audio conferencing. Classes or meetings can be recorded and archived and made available to students at their convenience

Students also benefit from The Conference Depot university services. Students will be drawn to the flexibility Web, audio and video conferencing offers, thus increasing enrollment. They can be just as much a part of classes from their home computer because they can hear the lecture, see any visuals and ask questions via a moderator. If their classes are held conventionally, requiring actual student attendance, students can make up classes that they miss by accessing archived recordings. Web streaming is also available for attendance where audio services are not available, perhaps for students attending in other parts of the world.

To make Web conferencing easy on both ends, Conference Coaches from The Conference Depot can moderate the entire conference, class or presentation from start to finish. Professors can focus on their lecture instead of trying to figure out technology specifics and students can focus on learning without distractions.
