How long will the video be available for purchase after the webinar? I'm not sure I'll be able to attend on that date, so I'd like to be able to purchase and watch it later when I have time.

Why should Europeans pay more?Jan 26, 2016

This webinar will be led by an Italian based in Italy. The cost of participation is advertised in the email notification today as $89 but when I go to the registration page it is offered at a special price of €82 for the next three registrations and €92 thereafter.

Why should the seminar become significantly more expensive if paid for in euros? Do US-based operators think we Europeans are too stupid to notice or just gullible?

Hi npeterson,

Thank you for your interest in the training and please accept my apologies for the belated reply.

Once the video is released all participants will have unlimited access to the video and watch it as many times and when it is needed.

Please let me know if you have any other doubts. Thanks!

My bests,
Helen

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your interest in the training. Please note that the price in EUR is 82 because members both in the Euro Zone and in the US pay a fixed amount, regardless of currency fluctuations, http://www.proz.com/faq/4033#4033

I hope this clarifies. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

My bests,
Helen
