This course uses OCAD, which is a paid mapping software but for this course, all participants will be provided with a free license for the duration. Instructions on setting up the software will be provided via email after registration.
Participants do not need previous experience using OCAD.
Participants will be provided with more information about setting up the software after registering.
Using Zoom
A zoom link will be provided to registered participants by email. Please be set up ready to go for the start of class with working audio and the software downloaded and installed so we don't have to take precious course time to sort that out.
Please participate from a laptop or desktop computer so you can use the software as intended. We strongly recommend you also connect to zoom from a second device so you can follow the instructor on zoom while using your computer to practice the skills being presented.
This class is in the past. Registration is not available.
