The course format is asynchronous in nature, meaning you complete the course at your own pace. A new module unlocks each week for 5 weeks,but only after you have completed the previous module. You’ll be able to look back at previous modules any time you’d like, and of course you can pause and re-watch any portions of the videos as needed. The video must be watched in its entirety for the quiz to unlock.
All materials referenced in this course are in the Course Materials folder.
Each week, you’ll view the module video, read/listen to some of the book, and then complete a module quiz and journal entry.
Note that you also can’t move on until at least an 80% is achieved on the quiz, and note that your extended response will be reviewed by the facilitator. You may review facilitator comments by clicking on past module assignments. A facilitator dashboard keeps us updated on your progress, and if you’re taking the course as part of your agency’s professional development requirements, your agency will be informed of your status on a regular basis.
Note that the system will log out after a brief period of inactivity. Ensure that you are still logged in before completing any quizzes or submitting files to avoid being bounced back to the log-in screen.
If you encounter an issue at any point, navigate to the Technical Support tab on the right-hand side of the screen within the course.
