Request training for your group or class
Does your office or class need new tech skills? You’re in luck! IT Training provides custom training sessions for IU groups and classes of five or more. Accelerate academic and career goals by learning more about Microsoft and Adobe applications, Microsoft Teams, storage, and more!
Keep your mobile device secure

Therefore, IU policy states you must secure any device used to access, store, or manipulate institutional data.
