Due to the limited screen size of a mobile phone, there is no practical way of watching the video and viewing the Student Notebook at the same time.

The best recommendation if you are using your phone to view the class is to print out the Student Notebook.

Print from Phone

If you're printing from your phone, you can print the current class session. To do this, open your online class window.

• Scroll down to the box that says, "Embedded PDF for this Session Only." This is the Student Notebook that applies to this session.
• Click on the printer icon in the upper right corner and follow the prompts as you normally would to print from your phone.

Print complete Notebook

To print the entire Student Notebook, you must download the PDF onto a computer and print from there. To do this, scroll to the box that says, "Download [Name of Current Class] Student Notebook."

• Click the orange box that says "Download PDF."
• Open the PDF, click on the printer icon in the upper right corner and follow the prompts as you normally would to print.

The trouble is most likely your internet speed, or lack thereof. Typically, you need a minimum download speed of 3 Megabits per second to watch a single video stream in clear, standard definition.

To check your internet speed you can visit https://www.speedtest.net/ and check the results.

If your download stream is less than 3 MBPS it may be time to consider an upgrade in your internet speed from your service provider, or you may also try visiting a local coffee shop to take advantage of their wifi service. (Just an option.)

On each session's page you should see the video right below the title and course progress bar. (See screenshot below.)

Are you using a mobile phone while viewing the course? The online school is optimized for all devices including mobile phones, but there is the possibility that your cell phone service provider is restricting access because of data limits or other restrictions.

To test this, please try logging in and viewing the course content on a desktop or laptop that is NOT using a cellular connection.

After finishing a lesson you need to use the MARK COMPLETE button located at the bottom of each session to advance to the next session.

Sorry, we are not able to mail physical certificates. But don't worry, your certificate has no time limit and will be available anytime in the future should you wish to print it.

Once you have completed the course quiz,  you can view the completion certificate PDF in a browser window.
