FAQ

Workshops will run much like those in person, with synchronous virtual meetings on our LMS, group work in break out rooms, and time to work. Please plan on being actively engaged with your workshop for 6-8 hours a day.

Please note that the College Board will not allow our consultants to record sessions.

All online workshops must meet the 30-hour requirements of the College Board and for those seeking graduate credits from Saint Joseph’s College.

You will need a computer, internet access, and the ability to participate in virtual meetings and online learning modules via our LMS (Brightspace). If you have questions about specific technical requirements for your computer, contact asktei@sjcme.edu.

All online workshops must be completed within 10 calendar days. All participants must complete all assignments within this time period.

Workshops for each cohort of participants will commence on Monday mornings 8:30am AM EST and will end on Thursday evening at 5:00pm.

All work must be completed by the following Wednesday 8:30 AM EST.

Expectations are that consultants will provide at least 10 hours of whole-group synchronous instruction/feedback/discussion opportunities and be available for one-on-one conferencing during dedicated “office hours” for at least one hour a day as necessary.

Daily conference hours will be determined by agreement between the consultant and the enrolled participants.

Consultants are not required to hold synchronous meetings or conference hours after 5pm on Thursday of the scheduled workshop.

We ask you to cancel your registration by the course registration deadline of June 12th. Any cancellations after June 12th are nonrefundable.
