Onsite classroom facilitators have a significant impact on the success of students and a school’s virtual learning program. Their responsibilities will be many, but training provided by regional ACCESS support centers will enable them to meet responsibilities related to handling technical issues, using the learning management system, receiving virtual learning courses, and managing a virtual learning classroom. Please review the Facilitator’s Manual to learn more.
