Anyone who has tried the second link has probably noticed that the current setup has the webinar taking place on Saturday, June 20th instead of the advertised Friday, June 19th. Our apologies for the mixup--we're working on fixing that and will post with an updated link when that's available. 

Many thanks for your patience and understanding!
