Technical Requirements Guide

Everything you need to know about setting up your learning environment for successful event investment planning education

Computer System

A reliable computer with internet access is essential. Most laptops from the past 5 years work perfectly fine. You don't need anything fancy – just something that can run a web browser and handle video calls smoothly.

Internet Connection

Stable broadband connection for live sessions and accessing course materials. We recommend at least 10 Mbps download speed for the best experience with video content and interactive workshops.

Audio Equipment

Headphones or speakers for clear audio during sessions. A basic headset with microphone is helpful for group discussions, though not absolutely required for every module of the program.
