Home Forums Discussions General Discussion ACUC 2012 ONLINE CONFERENCE

My entire staff were very excited about our going to ACUC to learn how to better use the AC program. As a provider group (9) we really like AC but do not use it to anywhere near it's potential nor do we see how others maximize it's potential and full useful features. Training to date has been somewhat less than optimal -- most of us 'discover' useful features but many good features remain 'undiscovered'.

Is there a way we have all those that were going to do lectures, demonstration of features using AC to video these lectures and then put them on-line, kind of like and "Amazing Charts University" or "ACUC 2012 Online Tutorials" in an expedited manner? Many people have already donated their time, prepared Power Point presentations, etc. Why not have all this in an online format so we can all benefit and not make ACUC 2012 a total loss. Seems like an opportunity to 'make some honey' if we can get everyone on board. ANY thoughts on how we can do this? Is it possible for AC staff to coordinate and provide the resources to make this happen or are they too busy w current workload and v7 prep?

James,

There actually is a way, but I can't speak for AC or it's ability to deliver up the slides and/or videos for the conference. Power is out for lots of folks in the NE right now,so I don't know how responsive folks can be at the moment.

We built the website infrastructure for the conference again this year, and we used some of the latest and greatest from the OS community, which means that the site has the
<>entire schedule of the conference loaded in
<>there is a place for the slides of each presentation
<>a means of commenting/asking questions/providing feedback
<>and [although we didn't didn't build it out-yet] a place for session videos as well.
It has been months in the coming, but there are a couple of folks who have worked hard for the AC community, and I want to publicly acknowledge Josephine and Adam for their efforts.

The presenters and the faculty for the conference are already registered on the site, but it is to up to individuals to opt-in and register if they are so inclined.

As part of our give-back to the AC User community, we also built-out the community aspect of the site, but require registration and verification prior to someone being able to access website content and the community.

Due to family health issues, we have had to put off the ACUsers APP a bit, but it will be an extension of the site, allowing folks to interact from their Android or iOS platform with the community. If there is sufficient interest, we will make it available on W8 mobile as well.

So, as long as there is user interest, we will keep the infrastructure up and maintained because it sounds like like someone has already thought of a good use for all this work.

Nice work James.

We are creating a schedule for online presentations of the conference sessions. We will be doing two presentations of each session, one in the morning and one in the evening. We're currently developing the schedule and will send it out once it is available.

Josephine,

Given the short lead time and the fact that MANY of us will already have patients scheduled at work, is there any way to record/video these sessions and leave them up online for any of us to download and view at a later more convenient date?????

I too hope these sessions will be taped and available. I am traveling to another conference and have a very full schedule leading up and I don't see how I can make the lectures that I am interested in.

The conference was cancelled due to the storms effect on the Northeast.
