UIC CRM Virtual Open House | University of Illinois at Chicago Online Certificate Program in Clinical Research Methods



		VIRTUAL OPEN HOUSE What is a virtual open house? A virtual open house allows prospective students the opportunity to meet faculty, learn about the program and communicate with current students. The open house is held entirely online and is conveniently accessible from anywhere with a computer and an Internet connection. Potential CRM students who RSVP for the virtual open house will learn about the benefits of the CRM program and online learning in general. Event participants will be presented with information about the CRM program and will have the opportunity to directly interact with CRM program directors, instructors and program support staff. Once you RSVP, you will receive a confirmation e-mail that includes additional information regarding creating an account, testing your system and logging in on the day of the event. Who will I meet during the virtual open house? Attend the open house and meet Dr. Jack Zwanziger, SPH Health Policy and Administration Division director, and Dr. Elizabeth Calhoun, CRM program director. Dr. Zwanziger and Dr. Calhoun will provide an overview of the CRM Program and will be online afterwards to answer questions. Enrollment management and student communications coordinators will answer questions about applying and admission to the program. Technical Requirements The virtual open house will take place in a UIC "e-Room". e-Rooms support a wide range of communication modalities including audio chat (sometimes called "Voice Over IP" or "VoIP"), text chat, application sharing, real-time polling, video and Web browsing. The system can be accessed with a standard PC-based Web browser. Unfortunately, Mac users must find alternative means to participate (Mac support is coming soon). Equipment Those who RSVP will be able to communicate during the virtual open house through the use of the text chat tool. Users who wish to participate in audio chat during the virtual open house must have a sound card, speakers and a microphone. Join our e-mail list to be notified of upcoming virtual open house dates.
