Introduction to True Live

True Live (TL for short) is a method to schedule real-time, live events. When an event is planned for a day of the week, for example Tuesday at 14:30 / 2.30 pm, this placeholder will repeat weekly and appear as an upcoming class on the attached web-player and Your instructor will initiate a stream from their preferred streaming application using the unique event stream key and will be live for the audience.
