GetSmarter Technical Requirements

BASIC REQUIREMENTS

In order to complete a course, you’ll need a current email account and access to a computer and the internet. You should be familiar with using a computer and accessing the internet, as you may need to read documents in Adobe PDF Reader, view Microsoft PowerPoint presentations, and read and create documents in Microsoft Word. Installing Adobe Flash Player will give you full access to certain course content, such as interactive infographics. However, you’ll still have access to this content in the form of a downloadable PDF transcript if you’d prefer not to use Flash.
