JRE Support

All active and supported Skillsoft courses have the ability to play without Java-free. Some older or retired courses may be Java dependent, or Skillport may be configured to use a Java-dependent player. If Java is required, Skillsoft supports

• .JAR Java™ Applets
• Enabling Java™ Console
• The latest fully released version of the Oracle JRE.

Skillsoft does not formally support any JRE that has not been fully released by Oracle. If issues with a specific Oracle JRE occur, the problems are analyzed to determine the best course of corrective action.
