Getting Ready for a Virtual Hearing
The requirements of social distancing have accelerated the use of technology as an alternative to holding in person hearings. Learn practical tips for setting up and conducting a hearing using video conferencing. The virtual hearing will likely develop into one of the procedural alternatives at the disposal of an administrative decision maker. Having the flexibility and confidence to hold virtual hearings will give tribunals another way to offer cost effective and timely resolution of disputes.
