FREE Info Webinar for Parents of Students Taking an AP Test:
The College Board is offering a free webinar for parents on Thursday, April 16th at 7:00 p.m.
Registration is required here

More info about the webinar:
With schools closed as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, we know that parents and guardians are helping their students navigate remote learning. As an AP® student, your child has been working hard all year, and we want to give them the opportunity to complete their AP courses and exams.
Join us for a webinar hosted by Trevor Packer, head of the AP Program, to learn more about at-home testing, the exam schedule, and AP review classes. He'll interview an AP teacher about how to best prepare for exams and a representative from college admissions about how students can earn college credit and placement with exam scores.
The webinar will take place on Thursday, April 16, 7 p.m. ET. A recording of the webinar will be emailed to you following the event. We encourage your AP student to tune in to the webinar with you.
