Webinars Question - Is there a way to see which ones are still open for registration?

I was searching for webinars today that I wanted to register for and every one of them is already closed for registration. Is there a filter I can apply so I only see the ones that are available for registration? This happens frequently and is inefficient IMO.

Hi Margaret: That is such a great question and I have not found a way to do that. Hoping someone else will jump on here who can help us both!

Hi Margaret! That's been my experience as well. I'll be following with interest. An enhanced filter feature seems the way to go. Thanks for posting your question.

Hi Margaret,
Same problem for me. Nice that you bring it up, Heather or Marjorie might get a better answer or will bring it to the table for future improvement.
You may try to connect just before the webinar, In another thread it was suggested!
A filter or a flag [Complet] would be an easy solution.

Hi Margaret - We do not currently have a way to filter webinars that are still open for registrations, however, you do not need to pre-register in order to attend a webinar. The webinar room opens 15 minutes prior to start time and you may join at that time. We limit pre-registration to gauge the interest in the webinar, but it does not limit who may attend.

I will pass your filter suggestion on to the development team to explore further. Thank you!

Heather, THANK YOU!!! I never knew I could join without being registered. That is fantastic!

One question...Where do I find the webinar link to join? I suspect it is very obvious but I have not been able to find it.

Heather,

Once a webinar is close we can no longer use the "Add to Calendar" option. We can put it manually on our calendar, would be interesting to still be able to have the option.
May not go with the goal of closing registration.
Thanks for the clarification

Hi Vincent - Yes, that is intentional and works in conjunction with the closing of the webinar.

Hi Margaret - There is no information on the site. When the webinar room opens, 15 minutes before the start of the webinar, the closed message will turn into the "Join this webinar" button to join.
