Weebly Webinar - Nov. 18



On Tuesday 11/18 at 7pm ET / 4pm PT we are hosting one of our more popular webinars – it’s a how-to webinar to build Weebly websites.  It starts at the basics – how to register for a site for NHD, how to choose a layout… and then progresses to some of the more detailed aspects.  This is designed for students, but can be great for teachers, coordinators, or coaches who answer student questions.  Elaine Koontz and I will be on live to answer questions.

Please pass the attached flyer across your networks.  As always, all of our webinars are archived at www.nhd.org/webinars.htm within a day or so of the program.

Thanks!

Building a Weebly Website for NHD

Webinar: Building a Weebly Website for NHD

Date: Tuesday, November 18, 2014

Time: 7pm - 8pm ET/4pm - 5pm PT

Description: This webinar is open to any NHD student creating, or considering creating, a website, along with any teachers or parents who want to support their students in this process. 

Want to build a great website for the NHD contest? Richard, our professor of all things Weebly, is hosting a free online training session to teach the fundamentals of Weebly's NHD Site Creator. He'll walk you through, step-by-step, the creation of an excellent site you'll be proud to share, as well as provide tips on how to properly organize all of your text, pictures, videos, and other content. 

By the time the training is over, you should be able to put your own site together with relative ease. The presentation is 50 minutes, followed by 10 minutes of Q&A.
