2020 Fundamentals of Immigration and Nationality Law eConference

What was the overall quality of the course (presentation, materials, and technical delivery)?
Rate the overall teaching effectiveness and presentation skills of faculty for the course.
I thought the course was helpful. Would like to hear more about H1-B.
During one of the presentations, the presenter's cat kept meowing. Very, very unprofessional. Yes, we're all working from home, but UT CLE needs to do a better job of setting professional standards for panelists. I'm a frequent presenter at national-level CLEs, even during COVID-19, and couldn't imagine allowing a cat near my home office during the recording of a presentation. Also, the political rhetoric from some of the panelists was disappointing and unprofessional.
More hypotheticals, please.
This was excellent!
