I registered for all the Webinars to get them on my calendar. July 7 and 14 show that they are at 10amPST, yet when I put them on my Outlook Calendar, they came up at 9amPST (11amCST). What time is correct?

I think it doesn't matter. When the homework folder is created, you can just move your homework page to it. That's what I'm planning to do.

For some reason I am currently unable to complete the week one homework assignment and create my page. I click the "Create a page" button, but nothing happens. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

You probably we're approved at that point. If you can not edit right now, please let me know.

Here I am -- I will be on the road for one class, but I am assuming (based on FAQs ) that will be manageable by watching the recorded version. Looking foward to this.

I have the same issue as Beth Skipper: unable to create my page to start with the homework for week one. Are we supposed to do homework only after class? Will we be granted a Writer level of access on time for homework.
Thank you so very much for this training.
