Webinar Recording Disclaimer: As a matter of best practice, we refrain from recording IM Certified Professional Learning sessions. This includes the video and audio recording of virtual and in-person sessions, screen capturing, and participants attempting to access third-party and AI transcription software. At this time, IM will not permit software integration with any third-party or AI transcription providers. This decision is rooted in our commitment to maintaining the integrity of a safe learning environment during live events and acknowledging that recorded sessions lose significant value compared to synchronous participation.
