Please Note:
* Browser
- If the learning management system (LMS) does not open, please check that your browser is not blocking the pop-up.
- Microsoft Edge, Firefox, Chrome and Safari follow a continuous release policy that makes difficult to fix a minimum version. For this reason, following the market recommendation our LMS provider, Docebo, will support only the last 2 major versions of each of these browsers.
** Operating System
Windows XP is no longer supported by its original vendor, Microsoft, but if your organization has internal policies that have extended the use of Windows XP, our LMS provider, Docebo, recommends that your PCs be migrated to MS Windows 8 or above at your earliest convenience. Docebo strongly recommends that clients maintain updated operating systems (both desktop and mobile) aligned to the latest release made available by the respective vendors.
