You can find this link in your MindShare account, under the “My eLearning” tab listed immediately below the title of the eLearning course. Please limit the number of questions to a limited number in line with the cost effective price of the eLearning course. Should you need a large number of questions and issues resolved, we would be happy to setup a consulting arrangement with you.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp> \u003C/p>\n\u003Cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">However, if your question is not related to the training material, but is more along the lines of an eLearning support question, you should contact MindShare eLearning support staff at the link below.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp> \u003C/p>\n\u003Cp class=\"ql-indent-1\" style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">\u003Ca style=\"color: rgb(102, 153, 0);\" href=\"../../contact/?user=eLearning&subject=eLearning+Support\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003Cstrong>Contact MindShare eLearning Support\u003C/strong>\u003C/a>\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp> \u003C/p>\n\u003Cp> \u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Do I get a copy of the slides used in the eLearning course?
