In response to the restrictions imposed during 2020 by the COVID-19 pandemic, BAA has arranged a series of [[Wikipedia:webcast|webcast]]s to replace their regular monthly symposium.<ref>BAA. [https://britishaplassociation.org/webinar-schedule-2020/ Webinar Schedule for 2020].</ref> The series proved popular, and was continued throughout 2021<ref>BAA. [https://britishaplassociation.org/webinar-schedule-2021/ Webinar Schedule for 2021].</ref> and into 2022.<ref>BAA. [https://britishaplassociation.org/webinar-schedule-2022/ Webinar Schedule for 2022].</ref> Initially, each event consisted of half an hour of social interaction, followed by a single presentation of about an hour, and a Q&A session, though some webinars were so-called ''open sessions'' which are more similar to the monthly symposium, in being informal meetings where APLers discuss and present whatever they feel like, with no particular subject decided on beforehand. Eventually, the series evolved so that most meetings were of this general meetup nature, with only a minority of events having an agenda. Participants are still encouraged to present or raise any subject, and can request in advance that an episode is set aside for such.
