Interactive Compressed Video Conferencing Interactive compressed video is a powerful telecommunication system which transmits live video and audio simultaneously over high-capacity telephone lines. Wisconsin compressed video sites are located on most UW campuses and at other state government sites. ETN links people throughout the state at more than 150 classroom sites located in county extension offices, courthouses, University of Wisconsin institutions, libraries and hospitals.
Participants listen to the program and use microphones for discussion and questions.
No technical skill is required to operate the equipment. ETN sites are located statewide. Please note that sites are not automatically open to participants. If you must register late, please contact the site you wish to attend to ensure room availability.
