Get Your Computer Ready for Class
Computer Hardware Recommendations
Please review the hardware requirements listed in your Course, Training Bundle or Technology Certificate Program.
Dual Monitors Recommended
We recommend that you have two monitors -- one which will display the VDCI Learning Hub and the other will display the software program you are learning.
Internet Bandwidth
Throughout your studies at VDCI, it is very important that you have access to good-quality Internet bandwidth with a download speed of 10 Mbps.
Get Organized for Class
Setup Local Course Folder
It is recommended that you keep all of your course materials in one folder. As such, it is preferred for our students to create a folder on their “Local C Drive” and that they populate the required VDCI files into that folder.
Required Files
Once a student has successfully logged into the VDCI Learning Hub, they will be instructed to download the required data sets (project files) onto their computer. VDCI provides data sets that the student will work on in their course. Please save the ZIP file in your Download folder, and move the contents of the ZIP file into your Local Course Folder
