An up-to-date operating system and Internet browser are very important when taking distance education courses. The Checkup will determine whether or not your computer meets minimum requirements. Check the table below to see if your computer passed the checkup.

The "Pass/Fail" column will show you if you meet the technical requirements to connect to distance education courses. If you don't meet the requirements, a "Fail" message will appear. Click on the "Help" link to learn how to get your computer ready to access course materials. Repeat this Online Browser Test after implementing a fix to see if it passes.
