Due to the wide array of technologies in our over 180 courses, there are some limitations to browsers and devices we can support. At present, we test and verify a wide variety of devices and have ongoing programs to migrate away from any technologies that are not compliant with newer mobile platforms.

Lightweight devices such as Apple iPads, Google Chromebooks, and tablets have limited support for Java or Flash which still appear in a small percentage of our catalog. We are working to de-flash our remaining course content. Students will need extra work-around steps or alternate browsers to engage with some portions of those courses.

We recommend students have a Windows or Mac based computer available to complete coursework in the event that your selected mobile device does not meet the needs of the course.

  • 7″ or larger display size
  • Access to WiFi with a high speed internet connection (4G or LTE connections are supported, but you may incur costs based on your mobile data plan)
  • Method to save work to local or cloud storage
  • Minimum Operating System: iOS 6 or greater, Android 2.2 (Froyo) or greater, Windows Phone 7.5 or greater

Below is the browser setup you are using. Please confirm the supported browser, plugins and settings are installed and configured.
