The vast majority of our users have no issues meeting the minimum system requirements and using our online training. Occasionally, users have local settings or other factors which interfere with accessing the online training, such as slower internet connections or outdated computer hardware.

Users of online training should have basic computer knowledge, including the ability to use a mouse, left-click and right-click a mouse, open and close documents and web pages, and navigate a website.
