Instructors:
To set up a course code for your course, please email Frontline Systems at [email protected], or call

be issued within 24 to 48 hours (often the same day). It will enable your students to download and install
Risk Solver Platform for Education with a semester-long (140 day) license, and will enable Frontline
Systems to assist students with installation, and provide technical support to you during the course.
Please give the course code to your students. If youre evaluating the book for adoption, you can use the
course code yourself to download and install the software as described below.
