There&#8217;s been changes to the look and feel of our tutorials, better navigation through the materials, and more interactive ways of learning with new quizzes and activities dotted throughout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this year we also launched a new way for our learners to track their progress through our on-demand tutorials and webinars, as well as being able to create a list of favourite items they have enjoyed or might want to investigate in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll need to create an account to start with, but it&#8217;s simple to do and only requires your name, an email address, password and your country of residence (we like to know where all our learners visit us from, we truly have a global community).&nbsp; Once you\u2019ve verified your account, you\u2019re ready to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebi.ac.uk\/training\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n    <button class=\"vf-button vf-button--primary\">\n        Create an account    <\/button>\n<\/a>\n<!--\/vf-button-->\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Straight away you\u2019ll notice a difference in our course listings as you\u2019ll spot \u201cmark as favourite\u201d links on all of our on-demand tutorials, webinars, and course materials sets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> You\u2019ll see the blue heart light up once you\u2019ve added it to your list and it will appear on your personal \u201cMy learning\u201d account page.
