Can I copy the CDs?

All CD-ROMs are copyrighted.  These copyrighted programs may not be duplicated, loaned, leased, rented or given to anyone else without permission, and should not be networked for public viewing purposes outside of the purchaser's classroom or lab.  Violators may be prosecuted.

Can I network the CDs?

The interactive CD-ROMs are not sold for network use.  The files may become corrupted if multiple users hit the same files simultaneously.  MAVCC suggests that instructors use the programs as designed and observe above copyright guidelines.

What is the best way to describe this product?

An interactive safety-training resource that provides audio, video, quizzes, tests, and gives instant results on student performance. 

Why would administrators support the use of the CD-ROMs and videos? 

• Cost effectiveness

• Accountability

• Addressing different learning styles

• Flexibility of product (self-paced or instructor led)

Are there any legal aspects to teaching safety in the classroom?   

The Carl Perkins Act requires we teach All Aspects of the Industry and "safety " is one aspect.  Accountability is also important, and these programs provide this for safety training.

How would you use the videos in a classroom…individual or group instruction? 

Both.  The CDs can be projected onto a large screen under the control and supervision of the instructor.  In a self-paced environment, students can complete the training on their own.  Student performance is automatically recorded on the computer for instructors to access.
