Have you attended one where someone other than the speaker or facilitator was handling all the technical aspects of the program? Ensuring that all the technology and logistics are handled seamlessly in a virtual meeting or virtual classroom (vILT) is the role of a Virtual Classroom Producer or Virtual Meeting Producer.
