When you click on an event in the calendar you will one of three status for the RDV Tuto

1. The Live Session is ready! This means that you can go ahead and join a session that is currently live. Don't worry if you are a little late you can still join.
2. The Live Session is not ready yet. Please wait for the host to start this session. (As per the video above). This means that you need to wait for the event to start. You can typically join about 5 minutes before the start time.
3. Live session is not currently available. This means that the session has taken place and the link has now expired. Don't worry though because you can still watch on catch-up shortly afterwards.
