How Course Registration & Online Video Access Works
STEP 1
Select the course you’re interested in and complete the registration form on that page to register and pay for your course through BPI/BOAT via Paypal (or credit card).
STEP 2
Once BPI/BOAT confirms payment, a link will be emailed to continue the course registration through Utah State University. This registration will give you access to their CANVAS online learning platform. Please make sure your email system does not block this or put it in the junk/spam folder. Registration Steps 1 and 2 must be completed to access this course!
STEP 3
Once you have access to CANVAS and the course video, you can start your training. Each online course is broken up into multiple video segments. You can start/stop each video as often as needed. At the end of each video segment, you will be prompted to take a quiz. To continue to the next segment and/or pass the course, you must score an 80. You are allowed 3 attempts to pass each video segment.
STEP 4
Once you’ve completed your course and passed the quiz, Utah State University will verify the contact hours/CEUs and BPI will send you a certificate of completion.
