If I try launching the Live Online classroom and my browser does not natively support WebRTC, what can I expect?

Kaplan makes every attempt to make our websites and products mobile- and tablet-friendly. However, not all state-required/regulated products allow for mobile tablets and phones to be used.

  • When working on the state-required/regulated course material, you are required to use a Windows- or Mac-based desktop or laptop computer.
  • We recommend the use of Windows 7-10 or macOS 10.9 or later operating systems.
  • We recommend the use of current Chrome, Firefox, or Safari browsers. We also support Internet Explorer 11 and Edge.
  • For business customers, please verify the browser choice and use with your manager or IT department.
  • We recommend online learners have the latest version of Flash (until Aug 1st, 2018) when it will no longer be needed.
  • We recommend online learners have at least a 2MB connection.
You will need to request the desktop version of the site:
  • In Chrome, click on the three little dots in the bottom right of your browser window, tap the box next to "Desktop Site."  
  • In Safari, tap and hold the "Aa" in the upper left until the menu appears, and then choose “Desktop Site."   
  • In Firefox, click on the three dots in the upper right, and then tap the box next to "Request Desktop Site.."
You may encounter audio/video issues, or perhaps an inability to connect to the webpage. Please try the following solutions: 
  1. Use one of the other recommended browsers.
  2. Clear your browser’s cache and cookies:  
  3. If possible, use a wired Internet connection.
  4. Try another network connection, such as your phone’s cellular network.
  5. Ensure you’re not using a VPN, proxy server, or network with restrictive firewalls (like a work network). Some public networks found in libraries or airports may also be overly restrictive.
  6. Visit the page in an incognito (Chrome) or private browsing (Firefox) window and be sure you don’t have any browser extensions enabled.
When choosing to share your screen, your browser will ask if you’re sure you want to allow the feature to show your screen to others. Make sure you’ve allowed screen sharing through your browser.

WebRTC is a protocol supported by modern browsers. If your browser does not support WebRTC, you must install the Temasys WebRTC browser plugin or use a supported browser. Please see the list below. We recommend utilizing the latest versions of your browser. To test your browser, please run this test: Kaplan Connection 2.0 Browser Test.
