Sorry for the inconvenience. Please use Internet Explorer in the meantime.

The page doesn't open with Safari on a MAC
We uploaded a new version of the online course, which should fix some of the problems with the various browser and popup blockes floating around. Can you please try again?

Sebastian
Sorry Sebastian, no change for Safari.
Kind regards,

Is there an audit track for this course - it says so, but I don't get any audio. Also what is the right screen resolution reqd? I find that the full course window does not fit.
This is a great help for starters in BPM

It don't work as well on Firefox. But here's a plugin to use IE kernel with Firefox : IE Tab plugin
It work perfect with it but I hope it will be working directly on Firefox.

I'm using Google chrome and the link is not working with me either
Haddiah,
Google Chrome 3.0 should work fine.
But the courses are starting in full screen mode, means a popup will try to open up once you clicked a course link.
And you probably have set Chrome to block pop-ups like most people, right?
Well, if you did, it could happen that you simply overlooked the message in the lower right corner of Chrome saying "Pop-ups Blocked". If you see that mesage, just click on it and then on the link shown. Then the course should start up in a new window.
I hope this helps. For other browsers we are still working on a solution.
Cheers
Rune
Very nice!
You may experience strange behavior when running these e-learning courses. That's due to a recent Flash update. I have to publishe al course again.
Please stay tuned for updates...

I have completed the read through of the first course <What is BPM>. but it won't allow me to appear for the test. I am getting below message upon completion of course.
"you are not authorized to access this content. Please complete the required learning objects first."
Dear Amit,
Have you checked whether your learning progress shows all units with green icons?
In the course window click the progress icon on the top right:
Then you will see your learning progress:
If a unit is not indicated in green, the system will consider this as incomplete. Hence, denies you to take the exam.
Cheers
Rune
Yes.. There were few units marked as red. I cleared those and it allowed me to go through the certification.
Thanks !!
I'm using Google chrome, IE and Firefox and the link is not working....
The link opens a popup window. Is that maybe blocked in your browsers?
I just opened this course in Chrome 14, Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox 5.0.1. In all browsers the link from the above icon worked fine.
Please copy that start link manually into your browser:
