implementation Callidus handles your data and there is no hardware to purchase. You will notice throughout the Course
Offerings Guide references to courses and the software versions they pertain to. There are slight differences in the
software versions and instructors do their best to point these out during class. Please make sure you are looking at the
correct course for the software version your company is implementing.
