Important Notice

If you experience problems viewing one of our web-based tutorials, you may need to install the latest version of Flash. Please download and install the Flash Player and then try to view the tutorial. If you still experience problems, please contact Software Training Services at PStrain@uakron.edu

Training Overview

Training is available in the form of web-based tutorials and training manuals (and/or job aids). Many of the web-based tutorials contain a survey at the end that requires a UAnet ID be entered. Completion of the tutorial will be recorded and may be used for granting security access. It is important to note that your UAnet ID is not recorded until you complete the survey and hit the “Send” button. Failure to respond to a survey will result in your training activity going unrecorded.

Documentation Updates

A log will be maintained on the web site to show updates/changes made to training materials. Please check the update log periodically to compare your printed version to the latest to ensure you have the most up-to-date information.

Web-Based Training – New Users

If you are new to our web-based training format, we highly recommend that you take a few minutes to watch the web-based tutorial Introduction to Web-Based Tutorials. This provides an overview of navigating through the tutorials so you are comfortable with playing, advancing, rewinding, pausing, and exiting the tutorials.
