Skillsoft courses may not launch if you are using a "Pop-up Blocker" application with your web browser. Please configure your Pop-up blocker to allow Pop-ups for the following domain names:
- skillport.com

If you are unsure if you have a pop-up blocker installed or the correct steps to configure or disable this application, hold down the "CTRL" key on your keyboard while selecting "Play this course" from the menu beside the course. For some Pop-up blockers this key combination may allow you to launch the course successfully. If this does not work please consult the Pop-up Blocker software vendor for instructions.
