Your instructor may take location-based attendance with PointSolutions. When location-based attendance is required, you need to make sure that location is enabled on the device you are using and that you are within the specified location range that was set by your instructor.

A VPN is not recommended for participants or instructors during polling and / or attendance sessions. The VPN could potentially report a different location than what the user is in, preventing them from checking in to the attendance.
