Guidelines for working in a group online

This program consists of three 2 hour online Zoom classroom sessions.

You will be attending with a group of teens across Australia and NZ.

To create a safe and positive experience for all, here are some guidelines for engaging together online:

• You will need a computer to join the session. Please don't join via smartphone or Ipad as it will limit your ability to engage in the session
• Turn your camera on and mute yourself unless sharing stories or experiences
• Share stories and experiences where comfortable. You can privately message your facilitator if you would not like to share publicly
• Ensure you are attending the online sessions from a quiet place with limited or no background noise for the comfort of other participants
• Use a headset to improve the sound quality for all participants
• Please respect the stories of others and keep what is shared 'in the room'
• Be aware of making judgemental statements about yourself or others
• Remember that all feelings are valid!
• Help create a safe space to be flexible and move outside your comfort zone
• Complete the pre-course activities so you are prepared for the course content
