How do you start taking your course?
You can always access your course by using the My Courses link, at the bottom of the My Account box on the right when you sign in to WebJunction Illinois. You will launch the course from there.
When you begin your course, you will encounter some pop ups. The first one will be a Security Warning. It is OK to click Run. If you have additional security software installed on your computer, you need to take extra steps to let your security software know that this software is not harmful. Make sure when you exit the course you use the Exit button so your place will be saved.
