     The Texas Democratic Party is sponsoring webinars to train Democratic activists at the grassroots. These webinars are open to Democrats across the state.  To register for a specific webinar, click on the link below the description. 
    Click READ MORE at the bottom of this post for more information.

Once you register for a webinar, you will be sent a log-in link that is unique to you.  Do not share the log-in information, as only one person may log-in with that information, so if you share it and someone else uses your log-in before you, you won’t be able to get in to the webinar. 

You should log in to your first webinar you attend at least 15 minutes in advance, as there will be information you will need to download.  For future webinars, try to log in 5-10 minutes before the scheduled start time just in case you have technical problems that need to be resolved.

IMPORTANT:  When the sign-in process asks you for your role in party, simply type CLUB MEMBER.
