First, a BIG THANK YOU to the VA for this! Once more we have been blessed with an invitation to attend the LiveMeeting sessions from VEHU, The VHA eHealth University, but you have to plan ahead because you can pick what you want to attend but you have to be registered ahead of time.
For those of you new to VistA, VEHU is a truly awe inspiring conference for VA folks all devoted to training and providing information about VistA and related technologies. The only place to REGISTER is on the VA INTERNAL NETWORK, which means that you will have to let me know what you want to listen to and I will have to register you on the VA internal network. I can get help from others that work at the VA to register folks, but since I can can access the network when I am at work and I am the only one sticking my neck out to help you (so far anyway), you should get on your horse, look at the HTML page I have posted here and pick your sessions. If the sessions are not oversubscribed by VA folks, you will be able to attend by LiveMeeting. So if you want me to register you, YOU NEED TO LET ME KNOW BY 5PM EST FRIDAY AUGUST 17. I am going to be at VEHU, so I can't help you after that. I will not have access to the VA Network. It would be nice if we can get organized to record the audio and video for some of these sessions. Some will eventually end up on the web, but it takes months because they have to have transcripts to be 508 compliant if they go on the government web site. So, if we can get organized and get enough people with audio and maybe video recording capability on these calls, we can get them posted sooner for everyone's benefit., VA and Non-VA. I have use the commercial program SnagIt to record sessions in the past. I am not sure if there is something open source. As I recall, SnagIt does not do Audio, so you will need a separate voice recorder if you got that route. Here is the announcement is about these sessions: "VeHU is next week. Are you one of the individuals that didn't get approval to attend? You don't have to miss out completely. Attend Virtual VeHU! Virtual VeHU is list of class offerings that are broadcast with a distance learning tool called Live Meeting. You can sign up to take the class even if you are not approved for travel. Some classes are not conducive to distance learning like panel discussions and hands-on classes. However, there is still a long list of Live Meeting classes in every curriculum. Seats are limited so we ask that you encourage everyone to schedule a conference room and share a reservation by using only one dial in number. Don't wait until all the seats are taken. Sign up today by using the following link to enroll in your favorite sessions." Here is a link to the COPY of the page from the VA internal network with the sessions listed. The link for registering will not work, of course, but the links to the live meeting sessions do work. I need FIRST NAME , LAST NAME, PHONE NUMBER, EMAIL, and the NUMBER OF THE SESSION to sign you up. This will only work for those calling from within the United States. <http://download.opensourcevista.net/downloads/Live Meeting Registration.htm> BTW, I had permission to snag this page and post it. I will dig around to see if I can get the latest catalog of sessions. There is an older listing here that we received long ago so things may have changed: <http://download.opensourcevista.net/downloads/Draft%20VeHU%20Catalog%200617.html> Remember, I need FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, PHONE NUMBER, EMAIL and SESSION NUMBER to sign you up. Any volunteers out there to organize things for recording these sessions? I can't take the time to do it, so we need one or more volunteers if it is going to happen. -- Nancy Anthracite ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
