This course requires your individual presence and your active, consistent and sustained participation in your individual work. Your individual responsibilities are to complete the work assigned, to be online and ready to work within the first five minutes of the class.
Active Participation
While the use of the camera remains optional, active participation implies that the learner takes part in discussions, answers and asks questions, either verbally or via the chat integrated into the meeting and participates in group and/or individual exercises. The instructor’s feedback is taken into account to validate that a learner’s participation has met the expectations for issuing the certificate.
