  Quick Tips for completing your registration: 

  1. Have student use a personal email instead of a school email address  (school servers block our links so students may not receive the Completion Certificate)
  2. Security questions:  Write down All Security Questions, also 1 Word answers are easier to never forget—they don’t need more than 1 or 2   (my Favs are:  How old am I?  and what is my Fav color?
  3. Log out each time so the timer does not get skewed by being online all night and we must fix the timer manually.
  4. Watch all videos to the end or they will loop so they can’t advance if the student clicks NEXT too often.
  5. Clear Cache and Cookies
  6. Students can log in with their email address or their Username ID.

  • You will receive your 30-hour Class Instruction certificate directly from Costech Industries.
