• October 2 to January 5 – the Swimming and Diving Clinic will be online only and may be viewed at no charge during this period.

PROCEDURES FOR VIEWING

• The maximum allowable time from start to finish is now controlled by the system. If you do not have time to complete the clinic at one sitting, you should postpone until a time when you have the appropriate amount of time.
• Each person that views the clinic must be logged into their account in order to get credit. If taken using anyone else’s e-mail address other than your own (including your administrator’s), you will have to re-take the clinic.
• The user will need to advance each slide. Nothing is automatic. Unfortunately, past experience indicates that without this feature, many users might seek unacceptable shortcuts to completion.
• The presentation can be viewed on most PC or Mac desktops and laptops, along with many HTML5 enabled mobile devices and tablets (to view system requirements click on the Resources tab from within the clinic once the clinic has started).
• Once you advance to the last slide of the presentation, you will be returned back to the KHSAA website and will receive credit for the clinic (there are no “certificates” for completed online rules clinics). If the presentation is not completed, and you are not taken back to the KHSAA website at the end, you will not receive credit.

TROUBLE?

• If you have trouble logging into the system, contact the KHSAA offices.
