Technical Requirements

Everything you need to know about system specifications and technical prerequisites for our career development programmes

System Compatibility Guide

Our online learning platform works across different devices and operating systems. Most participants find they can use equipment they already own, though some programmes may benefit from specific software or hardware configurations.

  • Cross-platform compatibility with Windows, macOS, and Linux systems
  • Mobile-responsive design for tablets and smartphones
  • Cloud-based storage for project files and coursework
  • Offline access to downloaded materials during travel
  • Multiple browser support including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge
  • Screen reader compatibility for accessibility needs

We test our platform regularly with different configurations to make sure it works reliably. If you're unsure about compatibility, our technical support team can help you check your setup before enrollment.
