The GSB Online Classroom is a convenient and cost-effective way for
you to participate in educational seminars that are delivered LIVE over
the Internet by some of today’s top industry professionals. These are

online seminars utilize state-of-the-art audio and video technology to
make this a very interactive, and hands-on learning experience. More than
3,500 financial professionals have participated in a GSB Online Seminar

commented about how easy it was to attend and participate in a GSB online

you valuable time and money. Attendees will be active participants during
the live sessions having the opportunity to ask questions via instant
messaging links with the facilitator or during ‘open mic’ sessions,
and participating in live opinion forums. Plus, when you reserve your
seat in the classroom, others in your office can participate and you
still pay only one registration fee. GSB Online Seminars are a convenient,
effective and efficient way to learn!
