Schedule Webex webinars
As a host or cohost, you can schedule webinars. Webinars are interactive and highly engaging; if your event calls for a simpler attendee experience, webinars in webcast view are the way to go. Scheduled these quickly with the basics, or take a bit more time to customize them using advanced options to tailor webinars to your needs.
The number of people you can invite to a webinar depends on the license purchased. Webinars can include up to 10,000 people. Schedule a webinar in webcast view for more than 10,000 attendees.
Webinars in webcast view aren't available for Webex for Government.
After you schedule a webinar, you get a confirmation email, and an email to forward to attendees.
