Why Are There Ads in College Board Training Videos?

Today, I embarked on my AP proctoring training journey, only to be met with a barrage of repetitive videos—each more monotonous than the last. But the real twist? Mid-roll ads started popping up right in the middle of these mandatory lessons! 😳 Here’s the kicker: mid-roll ads mean someone at College Board actively chose to monetize these essential training resources. Imagine being forced to watch ads while trying to fulfill your professional duties—on a district-issued device, no less, with no option for ad blockers! Is this a new low for educational organizations, or am I missing some grand design? I’m torn between laughter and disbelief. Have you faced similar interruptions? Let’s share our stories and brainstorm solutions—maybe together, we can spark some real change! 😤💡 Drop your thoughts below—especially if you know a way around this ad invasion! #Education #CollegeBoard #TeacherLife
