Frequently Asked Questions

What is Remote Training?

Remote training at Nexacu involves our experienced trainers delivering your training virtually. With remote learning, students can access our usual classroom training courses via video conferencing, ask questions, participate in discussions, and share their screen with the trainer if they need help at any point in the course. Students have the same level of participation and access to the trainer as they would in classroom training sessions.

Which courses are available if I am working from home?

Currently, all of our Public Courses are available to be delivered remotely. Book any course as normal and you will receive login details and instructions the evening before your course. This includes our Microsoft Visio courses. 

How can I prepare if I am taking an online course?

Install the Microsoft Visio desktop application, note this is only available on Windows. Apple devices and macOS are not suitable for this course. Click here for instructions for installing the subscription version. 

Ensure you have a valid license, preferably Visio Plan 2.
