Minimum Technology Requirements

We strongly recommend having an actual computer (laptop or desktop) to complete your training, not a mobile device. Mobile devices (iPads, Chromebooks, tablets, or smartphones) will, in some situations, work for introductory study; functionality will be limited, so we do not recommend them as the primary source of study.

Minimum PC Requirements:

• At least 13″ screen if purchasing a laptop – smaller than this, and the text gets quite difficult to read
• Minimum dual-core CPU
• Minimum 4 GB RAM
• Minimum 250 GB hard drive
• Windows 10
• High-speed internet
• Adobe Reader or equivalent PDF reader
• Microsoft Word 2003 or higher is required for the Healthcare Documentation Specialist program
