Joining ILR is as easy as filling out a registration form or registering online.

Course offerings and social events are regularly reviewed to broaden interest and participation.

The ILR membership fee is $145 per term. This fee allows you to take as many courses as you wish. Additional fees may be charged for travel, materials, etc. according to course requirements; additional fees are mentioned above the course descriptions in the course listing.

Membership cancellations and Special Event cancellations must be made through the ILR office and are charged a 25% administrative fee. No refunds will be given for membership or Special Event cancellations made within one week of the start date of the membership term or Special Event.

Prior to the start of the first week of ILR classes, you will be emailed your ºÚÁÏÉçÇø schedule as well as individual invitations for connecting to each of your online classes. You will then be able to connect to your classes in one of three ways:

1. Webex app:

We strongly recommend that you download and install the . It takes only a minute and you only need to install it once. Be sure to select the option for Webex Meetings. Always use your first AND last name when installing the app. Your name will appear with your camera image in class, and we won’t recognize you without it.

Once installed, pin the app to your taskbar (look for Cisco Webex Meetings in your applications list, open the folder, right click on the app (blue/green/white circle), select “pin to taskbar.”

Once scheduled, all of your classes will appear in the app. You’ll know a course has been scheduled once you receive an email invitation to join it. When it’s time to join your class—as an alternative to joining from the email invitation—simply open the app, refresh it, find your class, and press the green “Join” button. IMPORTANT: Every time you open the app, be sure to refresh it by clicking the small circle containing an arrowhead.

2. Student schedule:

Your online class(es) will appear on your ºÚÁÏÉçÇø schedule with a link. When it’s time for class, simply open your schedule and click the link to join your class. IMPORTANT: We recommend that you install the Webex app (see #1 above) even if you plan to always join your classes from your schedule. Installing the app will enable better functionality during class. We DO NOT recommend joining your classes using a browser. If you do choose to use a browser, use Google Chrome or Firefox. Safari doesn’t work well with Webex.

3. Email invitation:

You will receive an email invitation with join link for each of your classes. We recommend creating an email folder for your ILR classes and filing these invitations for easy retrieval. To join the class, simply open the email for the class and click the green “Join” button. IMPORTANT: We recommend that you install the Webex app (see #1 above) even if you plan to always join your classes from the emailed invitation(s). Installing the app will enable better functionality during class. We DO NOT recommend joining your classes using a browser. If you do choose to use a browser, use Google Chrome or Firefox. Safari doesn’t work well with Webex.

Yes. After registering for your ILR classes, . We’ll have you confident and ready to go in under an hour.

Prior to your class date, you will receive a Webex meeting invitation email from Judy Macke with information for accessing your class through Cisco’s Webex. Because there are a few different ways to join, the email will contain multiple links, only one of which is for you. Important: Do not delete the email until after the class.

If you’ve registered for multiple classes, we suggest you create an email folder for ILR classes, then subfolders by class name or day of the week, i.e. Midday Lecture Series or Monday classes, etc. File your Webex meeting invitations in these folders for easy retrieval on class day.

For full functionality, we highly recommend that you download and install the Webex app. See “How do I install the Webex app?” above.

Method 1 - Computer, Tablet, or Smart Phone

Simply click the green “Join meeting” at the time of the session. .

• At the time of the session, go to your saved Webex email meeting invitation (sent from Judy Macke), click on “Join Meeting,” and, when prompted, enter your name and email address.
• The best experience is with the Cisco Webex Meeting app installed. If you haven’t installed it prior to joining your first meeting, you’ll be prompted to install it the first time you click on the green “Join Meeting” button in your email meeting invitation.
• The first time you do this you may be asked which app to open. Choose “Webex Meeting”.
• If you choose NOT to download the app and, instead, choose to join from a browser, use only Chrome or Firefox. Note that not all Webex functions are available when joining from a browser instead of the app.

Method 2 - Standard Phone or Cell Phone

The Webex meeting invitation email will have a number to use. You will be asked to provide the meeting number and password also found in the email.

• It is important to know the call is long distance, probably to San Francisco. Therefore, you may be charged extra for the call depending on your service.
• Since this method is voice only, you will miss any video used in the presentation.

An electronic Miami parking permit is required for all courses held on the Oxford campus. Those registering online will receive a link to the permit.

A link will be sent to you via return email. Those without computer access should request a permit by completing the permit request box on the bottom of the registration form.
