YMC Live Meeting Classroom Guide:

1. If you have a Question, either “Raise your hand” or put the question in the chat.

2. Keep your Camera "on" for the entire call, if possible.

   • If you have to move around a lot or need to leave your computer/phone, turn off your camera for that time period.

   • If you’re having trouble with the connection, turning off your camera may help too.

3. Stay muted until called upon.

   • You will automatically be muted upon entering the virtual classroom.

4. If you have a personal issue (need to leave early or have a private question), private message Jerry directly in the chat. He will respond as quickly as he can.

5. If Karina or Jerry cuts out or loses connection, please stay in the classroom until they come back.
    

If You Miss a Live Meeting:

• Every live meeting is video recorded for viewing within your training group only.

• The replay of each Live Meeting will be posted on the Class page 24 hours of the live session.
