  • Enformia Cognition will provide a web URL (https://www.cogsuite.com/testme) that participants can use to check if they have the minimum requirements. The URL will clearly state if the user has adequate hardware using green and red text and symbols. The test URL will also return a short 5 sequence numeric validation code (xx-xxx) for each browser checked. The validation code will allow Enformia to lookup the specific hardware that was tested. Research Associates can direct prospects to the test web URL during their phone screen.
