Self paced courses with verified seat time

6 minUpdated August 2026For students, school owners, parents

What you'll do

You will start a self paced section, see what happens if you leave the tab or look away, and how checkpoint questions unlock the next part.

  1. Open the course

    Students start from the dashboard or the app. Progress picks up exactly where they left off.

  2. Stay on the lesson

    Leaving the tab pauses the lesson and logs a warning. Looking away pauses the seat time counter. Coming back resumes both.

  3. Answer checkpoint questions

    Questions appear mid section and must be answered before the lesson continues. Scores post to the student record.

Tip

Verified minutes are the only ones that count toward state hours. An open tab with nobody watching does not.
