Free webinars are “first come, first serve”. I recommend joining the webinar 15 minutes before the starting time. If you can’t make it, don’t worry! You will receive the recording. 

For Paid & Live webinars, make sure you have the link before class.

Blue Urpi will not issue any refunds if the student did not contact about a link 24 hours before the live webinar took place.

The learning platform issues a personalized link for each student and can only register attendance if you use the link assigned to you.

Unfortunately, if 2 people use the same link, it only records the attendance of the person who registered and only issues a certificate for the same person.
