On Demand features
The first time you log in to On Demand you will be shown a short overview video highlighting On Demand features.
In addition to simplified registration and easy filtering of course content, in On Demand you will find:
- Stop and start a course. Learn at your own pace. If you are interrupted while you are taking a course, you can stop and return to the course at a later time.
- Preview all content free of charge. Create an account to take any course for free. You only pay if you need a certificate of completion.
- Video timers. The content in our course videos is so important. You can no longer continue in a course until the video has played in its entirety.
- Assessment grading. You must score a minimum of 80 percent correct to receive a certificate of completion, or you will have to review the course and take the assessment again.
- Online professional development certificate available. There is a $5.00 fee per two-hour course to receive professional development hours for most courses. You will be directed to a credit card payment screen prior to taking the assessment. You must have a credit card to complete the course for professional development credit in On Demand.
- You can pay for more than one On Demand course at a time. Better Kid Care's On Demand system has an option to prepay for multiple professional development courses for you and/or your staff. See the steps for purchasing course prepayment codes.
- Print your own professional development certificate of completion. After you pay and successfully answer a minimum of 80 percent of the assessment questions, you can choose to print your certificate of completion and/or have it sent to your e-mail address.
- View/print a complete list of all the Better Kid Care courses you have completed. In On Demand, navigate to “My Completed Courses” and be emailed a list of your completed courses in On Demand.
