If you have done this and still have not received your confirmation email, please contact web_seminars@esri.ca.
7. I have not received my connection information email. What can I do?
There can be a number of reasons for this. One is that your organization may have blocked the email as spam. Please make sure that your organization allows Esri Canada email through your email server.
