How to Logon to an Online Training Course: To attend on online training course, please do the following:

  • You will need to have a free copy gotomeeting software loaded and running on your PC in order to attend an online training course. You can choose to do this automatically when you join a meeting or in advance if you think you need extra time to download the 3.7MB file from www.gotomeeting.com. In either case, once it is downloaded to your machine, you will be ready to join and participate in an online meeting.
  • It is also recommended that you login to the Online Course on
    a computer that has a fast connection to the Internet (256kps or higher). (Slow connections can cause the graphical portion being presented on your screen to lag a certain number of seconds behind the OneSource Trainer’s voice, making it very difficult to follow along with the training).
  • Within 15 minutes of the training course start time, please
    look in your e-mail for an invitation that includes the instructions on how to
    join the meeting and the conference call. (Please note: Each conference call participant is charged their standard long-distance rate for calling this toll-based conference number, just as if they made a regular long-distance call. There is no additional charge for the conferencing feature).
