QA/RA Adobe Connect Classes – Spring 2012


Notes:
You are REQUIRED to purchase headsets for Adobe Connect  classes, and you must also test the headset for compatibility with the Adobe Connect system. If your instructor feels a webcam is necessary for class, you are also required to purchase one. We recommend having a webcam to enhance your class presentations.

Students must have any stated prerequisites to register for Adobe classes.

All students new to Adobe must watch:  http://breeze.temple.edu/p59716030.  You will be given a password at the end, which you must write on your registration form. We will not process registration forms that do not have the password.  If you have taken an Adobe class before, you do not need to take the self-test of Adobe, unless you are changing laptops or computers. If you plan to use a different computer, please be considerate of other members in your class and TEST your new computer BEFORE taking a class.

Adobe Connect classes have limited seats. Registration is first-come, first-served. Register NOW to save your spot.

First priority in registration is given to our remote students and then students who are matriculated in the MS program or are close to graduating. The QA/RA Office will make a final determination on registration. Sorry, but once the available seats are taken, we cannot make more space in a class due to licensing limitations. Register NOW to save your spot. We will not process registrations until early January. We delay processing registrations to make sure that your tuition bills are due in mid-March (rather than early December). Save your spot in a class now.

CLASSES ARE LISTED IN EAST COAST TIMES (please adjust according to your time zone).
