You will be given access to an Amazon WorkSpaces virtual desktop environment for this course. Your teacher will provide you with an Amazon WorkSpace invitation. This virtual desktop is essentially a Windows-based virtual computer that we have preloaded with the necessary files and software you need for your course.
