Best  Practice   #1:  Make  others 
aware   that   you   are   studying 
online. 
Many   participants   said   they 
struggled to find time to do their 
online review while juggling busy 
family,   work   and   school 
schedules.   They   liked   the 
flexibility  that  e­learning  afforded 
them   because   of   anywhere,

many   suggested   that   future   e­

Simply print one or two of these 
signs for outside your office, cube 
or other areas where you do your 
e­learning. Whenever you  “go  to 
class,”   put   a   sign   up.   These 
notices   will   serve   as   a   gentle 
reminder   that   you’re   currently 
unavailable, and will help train co­
