    Hi @unknown. I encourage you to register anyway. Sometimes they make the webinar available online after it's over so you might be able to view it at a later time. You might also want to subscribe to BreaCan's mailing list here to keep up with upcoming events.

    @baybeeh_gurl I would register for the event. As Cosette has mentioned sometimes the webinar can be watched later at a time that works for you. This is run by BreaCan so we don't have that much information about it. You may like to send them an email breacan@breacan.org.au or give them a call on 1300 781 500.

    @melclarity, register anyway! Sometimes the webinar is made available afterwards so you might still be able to catch it.
