Federal Audio Conferences

How does an
Audio Conference work?

Audio Conference registrants will receive an e-mail a few days before the event with complete instructions on how to participate. You'll be given a unique Event I.D. and PIN that entitles you to a single phone-line connection to access the audio portion of the event. The instructions also will include steps to retrieve the speaker's hand-outs.

for one low rate!

LRP's Audio Conferences are the perfect way to train both new and seasoned staff. All you need is a conference room with a speakerphone and invite as many others as you'd like.
