Instructor Responsibilities

- Jon will come around and take attendance on Monday afternoon and all subsequent days of the camp.
- Provide event and attendee feedback on our survey, linked from your Instructor Resource webpage. This information is used by our Program Advisors to identify rockstar students and provide conversation content for follow up meetings with them.
- Use the file upload boxes to submit student work created in your mission. Upload boxes can be found at the bottom of this page.
- Immediately inform Jon if a Bootcamper is hurt, ill or needs to leave campus.
- Bootcampers are NOT ALLOWED to leave campus during Bootcamp hours without approval from Jon, or you, the Bootcamp Instructor. If your students wish to leave campus for lunch, they MUST let you know they are leaving, along with where they plan to go.
