Calling all childcare superstars! Get ready to dive into your ChildCareEd courses with some Zoom adventures. Here's the lowdown on how to join the party:
Zooming Like a Pro:
Lights, Camera, Action! Be a shining star (virtually, of course) by keeping your camera on and your microphone ready. We need to see your smiling face so we can all connect and learn together. We want to hear your bright ideas and amazing questions! Just remember to mute your mic when you're not talking – we don't want any background concert performances.
Tech Tools for Success:
Grab your trusty laptop or desktop computer with Google Chrome installed. It's like your virtual spaceship for knowledge exploration! Make sure your camera, microphone, and speakers are all working perfectly for a smooth ride (Think of them as your mission control!).
Need a Tech Fix?
Don't worry, space cadets! If you run into any technical troubles, our amazing support team is here to save the day. Just text or call (301)237-1414 30 minutes before class or 15 minutes after.
Just a Few More Details:
We need a minimum of 6 awesome crewmates for the class to launch! If not enough people sign up, you'll get some awesome alternative options.
