In-Person Training
Participants are not required to bring their own laptops as our dedicated computer training labs are equipped with the programs and files you will need access to on your training day.
Online Training
Participants must have installed and have access to Microsoft Project 2016 (or later) desktop client software on their computer to use during the session.
Participants are required to have a working computer with a microphone and speaker installed. We require an up-to-date web browser. For the best experience, we recommend downloading the latest Google Chrome browser.
