InspirED FAQ
Q. What is Continuing Education InspirED?
A. InspirED is a media streaming service providing exclusive content from BYU Education Week, BYU Women’s Conference, Adult Religion Classes, BYU Life After Loss Conference, and other events after they occur. Available at a low subscription cost, InspirED can be viewed on a computer and through apps on portable devices and TVs. This expanding library contains select lectures and presentations from past events (with closed captioning), and more presentations will be added each month.
Q. Which videos are included, and how many more are coming?
A. The InspirED library includes 200+ videos, and more are being processed. It takes a while to go through copyright checks and create closed captions. We are also adding hundreds of audio recordings from the 2023 Education Week. New Adult Religion Classes are released on Wednesdays. We are also excited about the new content we are planning.
Q. Will you offer sessions from all of BYU Education Week, BYU Women’s Conference, and other conferences?
A. Due to copyright limitations and other production challenges, we cannot offer every presentation from every conference. Moving forward, we remain committed to providing as much valuable content as possible.

Q. Why is there a cost associated with this service?
A. While we wish we could offer InspirED at no cost, that is not possible. We strive with all our programs to keep costs to a minimum. Working behind the scenes are many employees involved in media production, copyright, editing, captioning, computer operations, and coordination to make InspirED available. Our goal is to cover our costs, allowing us to continue providing this inspiring educational content worldwide.
