What Are Supported Events on Eduqat?
Currently, we support two types of events:
Webinars
A webinar is a live online session that you can host using Zoom, Google Meet, Skype, or any other video conferencing platform. You can use webinars to deliver lectures, presentations, demonstrations, or workshops on various topics. Webinars are ideal for reaching a large audience and engaging them with your content. You can also record your webinars and make them available for replay on Eduqat.
Onsite Classes
An onsite class is a live session that you can host at a physical location, such as a classroom, a studio, a park, or any other suitable venue. You can use onsite classes to teach practical skills, such as yoga, dance, cooking, photography, or anything else that requires hands-on learning.
