Virtual Courses

SMPTE virtual course instructors will divulge their interests in any products, instruments, devices, or materials that may be included in the training. Marketing materials for any virtual course will include this disclosure on the virtual course web page. Learning materials will include this disclosure attached to the course description in the Learning Management System.

Each virtual course will present assignments and quizzes which are graded by the instructor. Students must receive 70% or higher overall grade to qualify for the certificate of achievement and IACET continuing education units, which will be communicated to them from the automatic email system generated by the certificate issuer (Accredible Certificates and Badges). Learners who do not achieve a minimum of 70% will not be issued a certificate and will receive an email that communicates this information.

All SMPTE LMS users are required to have a working laptop with internet access to open a browser, and a headset for participation in live or on-demand instructor-led sessions.

For technical support LMS users can contract the support team by using either the Discussion Forum in the LMS, or the SMPTE education staff email and telephone directory.

All learner information will be kept private and secure on SMPTE platforms, based on SMTPE policy regarding GDPR requirements. Learner information will not be released to third parties without specific approval
