I am having issues enrolling in a class
The most frequent issue comes from attempting to register with a public email domain (e.g. Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo). You must use a professional or student email address to enrol.

Webex sessions have a maximum capacity of 1,000 attendees. Once full, no additional participants can join. Microsoft Teams sessions accommodate up to 10,000 attendees. Late joiners will still be able to view the presentation and listen in, but won’t have access to chat or microphone controls (i.e. they cannot unmute themselves or participate in the discussion).
