Each quarter Heartbeat Academy offers live virtual classes designed to provide in-depth training tailored to your organization's needs! Taught by our growing team of Heartbeat faculty members, these classes vary each quarter in topic and length, but each invites you to focus on and enhance your expertise over the course of a few weeks. There are no live virtual classes currently available for enrollment, but below you can explore some of our classes that are offered regularly.

Simply use your normal email and password combination to log in, then navigate to your email to retrieve the 6-digit verification code to complete your login. Please note that the verification email may appear in your spam folder.

While we would love to keep you apprised of every conference activity, we sympathize that it may feel overwhelming for some. There are two ways to manage your notifications: in the app itself and on your device.

A) Manage notifications in the app

1. Go to the home screen at the bottom of the app.
2. Click the profile icon that has your profile image on it, which will pull up a left menu bar.
3. Click the Settings button and under notifications, click Notification Settings.
4. You can toggle on or off each notification type for the event, community board, and topics.

B) Manage notifications on your device

To manage your notifications, navigate to your device's settings. From there, find your Notification settings and adjust the settings for the Whova app.

Find the Event Schedule

From the event homepage (left image), find the menu at the bottom of your screen and tap on "Agenda." This will open the Full Agenda. From here, you can navigate by day and tap the icon that reads "Add to Agenda" on workshops that you'd like to join. The workshops that you add can be viewed under the "My Agenda" tab at the top.

Please note that what you see on the "Agenda" tab will depend on your registration. For example, if you're only signed up for In-Depth Day, you will only see sessions for that day. This also applies to virtual-only attendees.

To filter the Agenda, simply select "Tracks & Filters" from the top and filter by track and tag. Click "Apply" to apply the options you selected.
