NOTICE: During prior registrations, some participants’ browsers were caching the old page and not revealing the updated page (with active registration links). This is not something we can control, but we’d like to offer the following tips:
- It is best practice to always register using ‘private’ or ‘incognito’ mode to prevent your web browser (e.g. Safari, Chrome, etc.) from caching an old page. To learn more about private and incognito mode, please click on the red arrow below.
- If you choose to register using your regular browser mode, please do not visit or refresh this page before 10:00 a.m. ET. If at 10:01 a.m. ET, this page does not show links to the event registration/payment pages, you are seeing a cached version of the OLD page.
Please click on the red arrow below to view more information and tips on avoiding caching and registration errors.

-
If at 10:01 a.m. ET on registration day, this page does not show links to the event registration/payment pages, you are seeing a cached version of the OLD page. You can solve this problem by:
- Opening your browser in ‘incognito’ or private mode and pasting in www.carleton.ca/lifelong/registration
- Instructions for ‘Incognito’ mode in Google Chrome
- Instructions for private mode in Safari
- Instructions for private mode in Firefox
- Instructions for private mode in Microsoft Edge
- Important note: If you have your settings configured to automatically populate your credit card information, this will not occur in private/incognito mode. Please ensure you have your credit card available to manually add this information when prompted at the secure online payment page.
- Waiting 2 minutes before refreshing the page (if you don’t know how, you can try these instructions).
- Opening a different browser, if you have one (e.g., Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Edge) and pasting in www.carleton.ca/lifelong/registration
- Using an alternative device, if you have one (e.g., iPad, smartphone, laptop) and visiting www.carleton.ca/lifelong/registration
- Clearing your browser’s cache (if you don’t know how, you can try these instructions).
IF the above solutions don’t work, you can email us to receive direct links to the event registration/payment pages after 10:10 a.m. ET. on registration day.
- ADVICE FOR SUCCESSFUL REGISTRATIONS:
-
- LLeaP cannot consider requests for registration before the designated registration day. Links to the registration forms and additional registration details will be posted on this page.
- Each offering will have its OWN registration form which will prompt you to pay using our secure online payment page. Cheques cannot be accepted at this time.
- Each registration form will require registrants to review and agree to the LLeaP policies, including those about withdrawals and refunds. To speed up the process on registration day, you may like to review our policies ahead of time.
- You can only register one person per form. Should you wish to register with a partner or friend, an additional form must be submitted.
- The form will automatically shift to a waiting list form once the allotted ‘seats’ have been filled. We will draw from this list if spots are released or increased, or if we offer a repeat session.
- ONLINE SERIES AND RECORDINGS:
-
- OUR OFFERINGS ARE LIVE EVENTS; PLEASE ENSURE YOU CAN ATTEND AT THE SPECIFIED TIMES. We may make and use recordings as a backup in case of technology problems. We do not currently share recordings, in part out of copyright and intellectual property concerns. Our approach may change in the future when a more secure place to store and stream recordings becomes available.
- PREPARING YOURSELF FOR USING ZOOM:
-
- Get started with Zoom using our instructions: https://carleton.ca/lifelong/support/. This support page includes videos about installing the Zoom software and using Zoom features in LLeaP offerings.
- We strongly recommend that you test your internet connection, camera, microphone, and settings by joining a Zoom test meeting, https://zoom.us/test. You will be the only person in this meeting; it is used for the sole purpose of testing your equipment. Ideally, you should do a quick Zoom test (https://zoom.us/test) before joining each week’s meeting as Zoom updates regularly and each device responds differently. To check if your Zoom software is up to date, or to set it to update automatically, view these instructions.
- Connected Canadians offers free one-on-one technical training and support for older adults, by appointment. If you need individualized help with Zoom or other tools, or want to learn more about how to use technology to connect to virtual programs like online support groups, learning events, and social programs, call 613-699-7896 or sign up for help at https://www.connectedcanadians.ca/programs. Outside of the Ottawa area, 1-877-304-5813 (toll free). We recommend that you do so before the session begins.
