What to Expect in the Training Classroom

It is thread’s goal to provide the best training environment and to respect all learners. For this reason we ask the following of all training participants:

• Plan to arrive 10-15 minutes before training is scheduled to begin. (Entrance to training at some thread offices will be locked 15 minutes after the scheduled training start time. You will not be permitted to enter after that time.)
• Silence/turn off all electronics. If an emergency call/text arises, please step out of the training room so you don’t disturb others.
• Child care is not provided: therefore, no children are allowed in the training room during training. Anyone who brings a child to training will be asked to make other arrangements.
• Participants are welcome to bring food and refreshments during trainings. We ask that you please throw away your trash and leave your area clean when you leave.
• You must be present for the entire training to receive attendance credit.
• Show respect for all other training participants by listening, asking questions as appropriate, and participating in activities, and saving side conversation for breaks.

What to Expect in the Online Classroom

• Plan to log-in 10-15 minutes before training is scheduled to begin.
• Please remain muted once training begins to prevent background disruption.
• Attend the entire training and demonstrate full participation. Partial credit is not given.
• Be present and visible on video camera for the entire class time.
• Show respect for all other training participants by listening, asking questions as appropriate, participating in activities, and saving side conversations for breaks.
• Once you join the virtual training, your attendance is captured.

Multiple Online Attendees

• If you are sharing the same device with other educators attending the training, please provide each person’s full name to ensure each qualifying educator gets credit.

Training Certification

• To receive training credit and a certificate:
  • You must be pre-registered for that specific training. Early educators who participate, but are not pre-registered, will not receive credit.
  • You must attend the entire training and demonstrate full participation. Partial credit is not given.
  • You must be present and visible on video camera for the entire class time.
  • You must complete the training evaluation within 5 business days of the receiving the link.
