Some of the comments received:

• This is fantastic approach. It enables to the trainer go back and review the webinars presented by each speaker, especially those webinars the trainer was not able to attend.
  
• I think all the professionals, guest speakers and such were very well prepared. I would highly recommend more trainers to participate and benefit from this webinar.
• This was a great training. I really appreciate the information I learned from the trainers.

Description: 

The Home for Trainers Webinars Workgroup is pleased to have offered a unique opportunity to revisit a number of topics we covered over the past two years.  For our December 2015 webinar we lined up 10 of our previous presenters to answer your questions and respond to your comments about the topics they presented.

Did you view a recorded webinar and have questions for the presenter? Did you implement things in your training program that you learned from a presenter and now have follow up questions? Do you want to learn from the experiences and questions of other interpreter trainers and educators? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, this event was for you!

The webinar lasted two hours. Attendees were welcome to join for the entire duration or for the time that best suited their interests.
