I start training in a few days. We were told last week via email that we would be responsible for purchasing our own iPad and would be reimbursed up to $600.00. There was also recommendations on which iPads to purchase. I purchased IPad Pro 10.5 256 wifi only. You will be required to show up first day of training with the correct iPad. They will also go over the type of battery charge you will be required to have on first day of class.
