The ISSTD Webinar Committee, since inception has been very ably chaired by Marilyn Korzekwa. As of the beginning of 2022 she has passed the baton to Sara Rourke and Warwick Middleton, who will act as co-chairs going forward.

We have seen enormous growth in the number of Webinars on offer and in the numbers of colleagues registering for them. One measure of the growth in the Webinar program is the annual revenue derived from it. In 2019 the revenue was $15,503.00. In 2020 it was $25,373.00. Up to the end of November 2021 the revenue for the current year was $44,546.00. In 2021 we had over 500 registrations for webinars and over 800 live participants.
The 2022 Webinar Pass was launched on 15th November and within two weeks some 22 colleagues had purchased the pass which provides access to the full annual Webinar program. That number has now doubled and we are thrillled to see such high participation in our educational programming!
Sara and I are very interested to hear from colleagues regarding potential Webinar topics for the future and recommendations about potential presenters, as well as from colleagues who would like to take an active role in presenting the program by volunteering to be moderators for individual webinars. We would love to have a grouping of moderators who assist the program as members of the Webinar Committee and who on occasions moderate/chair individual webinar presentations. It is a great way to get “hands on” involvement with many of the original thinkers and researchers in the field of trauma and dissociation. We will be posting an opportunity in the ISSTDWorld Volunteer Match system soon for additional moderators and look forward to having you involved! If you have any questions or ideas for topics for future webinars please feel free to email us.
