We understand that the ability to attend CE classes virtually is highly valued by our members, and we’re proud to offer this convenience at no cost through MSBR. However, we kindly remind you that certain rules must be followed to ensure a smooth and productive experience for everyone.
- Can't attend: e-mail or call to let us know if you need to cancel, 410-822-8767
- Punctuality is essential: You must be logged into the Zoom meeting at least 10 minutes before the start time.
- Proper identification is required: Please change your screen name to “MSBR – [Your First and Last Name].” Example: MSBR Deb Leber
- Stay focused: CE classes are not open sessions. They have structured material that must be covered for you to receive credit.
To keep the class on track, we will mute participants, and we ask that all questions for the instructor be submitted via the chat box. With over 100 attendees in some sessions, these guidelines help ensure everyone benefits fully from the class.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!
