 2.   TRAINING

 

I DID NOT RECEIVE THE INVITATION EMAIL

Please check junk emails of the mailbox which you provided.

 

I HAVE NOT CREATED A TRAINING ACCOUNT YET, BUT WHEN FOLLOWING THE LINK, I AM REDIRECTED TO SIGN-IN PAGE INSTEAD OF THE ACCOUNT CREATION

Most probably, you used the link from the message with the training assignment.

Normally, there are two e-mail messages – one with the invitation and another one with the training assignment (this one is for the cases if you already have the account).

You need to use the link with the invitation (started with “Dear ****, You have been invited by ***** on behalf of "*******" to register…”).

 

I HAVE COMPLETED ALL TESTS BUT THE SOFTWARE SHOWS THAT SOME EXERCISES ARE NOT COMPLETED

This happens if some exercises located in the middle of the theoretical chapters are missed. The certificates are issued only after all theoretical content has been read and all exercises are completed. Here is an example of completed exercise:

 

THE CONTENT IS DISPLAYED INCORRECTLY. THE VIDEOS DO NOT OPEN, EXERCISES STOP WORKING

Please make sure you do not use VPN, Tor or any anonymizer software. If you need to use VPN for to access your email etc, switch it off before opening the course.

 

THE CONTENT OPENS BUT I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE EXERCISES/SELF-PRACTICE

Please make sure, that you use an officially supported browser. For instance, the latest Chrome or Firefox in Windows.

 

I CANNOT FIND THE COURSE. WHEN I OPEN THE TRAINING, THE SYSTEM STATES THERE ARE NO COURSES AVAILABLE. HOW CAN I COMPLETE THE COURSE?

This can be due to the following reasons:

1. The training has expired. You have 15 days to complete the course from the first time you opened it. You will need to request another course.
2. You are not enrolled onto any course. In this case, contact the person who is responsible for the training management

 

3.   OBTAINING THE CERTIFICATE

 

I HAVE COMPLETED ALL EXERCISES BUT WHEN I PRESS “OBTAIN CERTIFICATE” BUTTON, I’M FORWARDED TO A BLANK PAGE

This may happen because of the browser specifics (caching). Please, exit the session (if you still logged into the training account), close the browser, then log-in to your account again and proceed with the certificate creation.

 

HOW CAN I CORRECT THE DATA ON MY CERTIFICATE IF I FORGOT DOING IT BEFORE THE CERTIFICATE IS CREATED?
