Can I take the courses on my iPhone or smartphone?
Of course! The Stride Professional Development Center is fully responsive for all kinds of mobile devices. In some instances, however, a course may require laptop, tablet, or desktop use for the best experience. Should that need arise, the expectation will be clearly discussed on the course main page (e.g., Grading Calibration series).
Is Internet Access Required?
This is a great question, and the answer is yes. Internet access is required for all courses, and broadband internet is recommended due to video content. Also, while our courses work with all browsers, Chrome is recommended for an optimal experience.
what is your opening hours?
Reach out using the Contact Us page. Another option is the orange Ask Us widget located on the bottom right of the page. Please note that our business hours are 9am to 5pm EST; however, we will respond just as quickly as possible, and we do our best to stay within 24 hours for all inquiries!
