Facilitated by our Training Team, we're holding an eduroam clinic on 1st March 2016. These are great group forums in which to pose a question (by text or audio), hear the experiences of other members of the eduroam community and to learn from the answers of the expert panel consisting of the fab four eduroam(UK) Support team (and usually me). There is also the opportunity to go off into a private virtual room for in depth consultation with one of the panel.
