with a company called Brainshark to bring you an enhanced video player
that allows for playback on the iPhone, iPad and other mobile devices.
This upgrade has also made possible the ability to download and print a
"certificate of completion" for each webinar you view. You will also
notice a more easily accessible "attachments" button for downloading the

ELN webinars not only allow you to pass on what you have learned, but
you are also encouraged to watch these high quality webinars with
members of your staff during "lunch and learn" sessions, faculty
meetings and in-service days. The State Mandated Trainings are a perfect
opportunity to gather your staff together and promote learning on these
important topics for educators. Each training also includes an attached
"sign in sheet" to be completed and kept as verification that your
school is compliant with the required trainings in your state.
