# Brand Building: Hosting Webinars

Give your brand more visibility

Webinars are a powerful tool for Academy Owners to showcase expertise, engage with a broader audience, and generate interest for full-length courses. Unlike comprehensive courses, webinars are typically single-session events designed to be accessible and impactful.

In Yuno Learning, the Webinar feature is streamlined for ease of use, allowing you to set up a topic and schedule it in a single step.

**Prerequisite** While the Webinar feature is accessible to Administrators, it is designed specifically for **Academy Owners**. To maximize the benefit of webinars (building your learner list), ensure you have set up your Academy Profile.

### Creating a Webinar

Setting up a webinar is a single-step process. You do not need to create separate batches or complex schedules.

1. **Navigate to Classes** Log in to your Administrator account. On the main left-hand menu, click on **Classes**.
2. **Initiate Creation** Click the **Create Webinar** button to open the setup form.
3. **Define Details & Schedule** Since this is a unified process, you will enter the webinar details and the schedule on the same screen. Fill in the following fields:
   * **Title:** Choose a catchy, clear title (e.g., "Introduction to Data Science" or "IELTS Speaking Tips").
   * **Description:** clearly outline what attendees will learn. This is your "sales pitch" to get them to register.
   * **Date & Time:** Select the start date and time.
   * **Duration:** Set the expected length of the session.
   * **Instructor:** Assign yourself or one of your academy's instructors to lead the session.
   * **Price:** You can choose to offer the webinar for **Free** (recommended for lead generation) or set a **Price** (if it is a premium workshop; coming soon).
4. **Publish** Once you save the details, your webinar is created and ready to be shared.

### Building Your Learner List

One of the primary goals of hosting a webinar is to build a database of potential students for your academy.

When a user registers for your webinar, they are not just adding an event to their calendar; they are entering your academy's ecosystem.

* **Data Capture:** Every registration is automatically captured in your system.
* **Accessing the List:** You can view these users by navigating to the **My Learners** section of your academy dashboard.
* **Marketing Opportunity:** This list represents high-intent users. You can use this data to reach out to them later, share materials, or invite them to enroll in your full-length courses.

**Growth Tip** Host a free webinar that covers the basics of a subject you teach. At the end of the session, direct the attendees to your full paid course for advanced learning. You already have their contact details in "My Learners" to follow up!

### Conducting the Webinar

When it is time to go live, the process is similar to conducting a standard class.

1. Navigate to **Webinars** in your dashboard.
2. Locate your scheduled session.
3. Click **Launch** to open the virtual classroom (Zoom or Google Meet, depending on your integration).

Ensure you join a few minutes early to test your microphone and camera settings.

### Frequently Asked Questions

<details>

<summary><strong>Can I create a webinar series?</strong></summary>

The current webinar tool is designed for single-session events. If you want to create a multi-session program (e.g., a 3-day workshop), we recommend using the **Courses** feature and creating a specific batch for it.

<details>
