Will it work on your computer?

some course screen shots

Today’s typical PC whether Windows or Apple Mac (Intel or PPC) can run the course.

Learn at your own pace and at times that suit you (or do the course in a single day) - at the office, at home or anywhere you can get access to the Internet

A typical desk PC today can access the course. Anyone with a Mac OS 10, or Windows 98 / XP / Vista / Windows 7 will be able to use the system.

You simply use your favourite browser - perhaps Internet Explorer, Safari or Firefox. You don’t have to install any software. You log into the course using password access to a website. For part of the course you will be downloading exercises in Microsoft Word (.doc) format to edit. One reference file is an Acrobat pdf file.

There are no security issues whether you access from a company or home PC.

You will need Flash Player 6 (or higher) loaded, most people have this, but it can be downloaded for free. If you can view a YouTube video (youtube.com), the system should work for you. We would recommend Broadband connection, but access is possible with dial-up.

The video clips have an audio commentary so you may prefer to plug in a headset if you are in an office environment, so you don't disturb others.

Our host’s delivery servers are very reliable and handle a large number of other elearning courses. The system serves from the Savvis Exodus Center in Los Angeles, one of the largest in the world.

If you were to suffer insurmountable technical problems we will refund your money. This is provided you have not exceeded one hour of using the course.
