Frequently asked questions


What is a Sprint?

What device should I use?

Sprints can be accessed using a computer - for the best experience, use the Chrome browser.

Sprints are available to everyone but we find they are most helpful for students aged 13-18. They help young learners apply their skills to real workplace place tasks.
