Technical Information
Although EMI strives to make its independent study courseware compatible with all major web browsers, some users have experienced difficulty taking IS-800.b with browsers other than Internet Explorer. We highly recommend that Internet Explorer be used to take this course. We plan to have a fix available soon.
