Content support:

Many courses require students to link to outside resources to complete the course. These outside resources can include links to YouTube, TED Talks, etc. Depending on your country of origin or your school's internet filters, some course content may not be available. Please review the demo course before ordering to ensure the course can be completed as delivered and that students will not have issues accessing all course content.
