What is the role of a producer in the virtual classroom?

A virtual producer manages technology, supports facilitators, and ensures smooth, distraction-free virtual classroom experiences for learners.

While the facilitator focuses on teaching, the producer handles the tech—launching polls, managing breakout rooms, resolving issues, and monitoring chat. Their behind-the-scenes support helps sessions stay on track and learners stay connected.

Virtual Producer Duties:

  • Manage Tools: Launch polls, control audio/video, and handle breakouts.
  • Support Learners: Troubleshoot tech issues and advocate for learner needs.
  • Assist the Facilitator: Keep sessions running smoothly and on schedule.
