Mobile Devices
While most courses are compatible with mobile devices, be sure to consider the factors that impact a mobile experience, such as screen size, LMS or browser apps, course lengths, course formats, and legacy devices.

Connection speeds:
For mobile devices we recommend avoiding cellular data, which can be unreliable, and instead using a strong wi-fi connection.
Some courses include audio. It is usually possible to enable or disable audio within the course or on the course page prior to launching the course.
If you have problems with audio, check that you have a sound card installed on your machine and that the speakers or headphones are correctly connected to the computer’s soundcard (not plugged in to your CD-Rom drive’s headphone socket).
In order to make sure you have the correct browser settings to enable learning over the Internet please use this compatibility check.
The compatibility check tests that JavaScript, Cookies and pop-up windows are enabled for course-source.net servers.
Firewalls and proxies are IT equipment that are used to secure and speed up your internet access. Your IT department should configure any firewalls to allow HTTP traffic to any domain ending course-source.net . Also important is that course-source.net pages should never be cached by proxies.
Q. My PC does not meet all the pre-requisites. Can I still run a TTS Training e-learning course?
A. You may still be able to launch a TTS Training e-learning course, but you may notice that audio doesn’t play correctly, or that pages take a long time to display. Please contact the administrator with any specific queries about the pre-requisites.
Q. How long are the courses?
A. Typically courses vary in length between 10 minutes and 60 minutes, although there are some longer courses that may take from 2 hours to 20 hours. Please note, the time taken will vary depending on your level of expertise and understanding in the subject.
Q. If I log off, will my course be bookmarked for the next time I log on?
A. Yes, the course will be tracked and bookmarked to the page that you finish on in the tutorial, and you will be notified of which tutorials you have started or completed. You do not have to do the tutorials in the order listed, you can choose to start at any tutorial.
