The clinic, even virtually, is designed for engagement and discussion. We ask that you turn on your video and mic (please keep on mute except when sharing) to increase the level of engagement. We recommend using a computer rather than a phone as we will be using some technologies that are easier to use on a computer or tablet. We also ask that you, as best you can, be in a place that offers some privacy. We also understand that children and pets may wander into the call from time to time.
The clinic will have ample opportunities for small break out rooms for discussion. This clinic is not one that features lecturing by the facilitator. Along those lines, we likely will be covering material that is new to you and some that you have heard before. For the new material, please come in with an open mind; for the material that might not be so new, look at it as an opportunity to reinforce what you already know and to find deeper understanding; you can also share your experience and knowledge with your fellow coaches who are less experienced.
We ask that you give the clinic your undivided attention. We ask that you treat this clinic as if you were driving an hour away to attend an in-person clinic and make arrangements accordingly. In addition, we require attendance at the entire clinic in order to be eligible for certification. If you cannot make the entire clinic, we can reschedule you for another one. If you need to leave early or arrive late, you will be asked to repeat the entire clinic.
