Once you have activated your IT account, you should receive an invite to complete these within the following week. If you have already done this, then you are not required to do so again, but referring to the modules in the future is always a good idea to refresh your knowledge.

If you have activated your IT account, but are unable to access the training, please report an incident with the IT Service Desk.
