I messaged michael directly but for everyone else go ahead and click through this error if you get it. The video will still run correctly, we are updating soon and it will correct with our new software.
@Bob-Bachynsky The link for "Agile and Anaplan (140)" does not work for me, but the other links do. Also, videos #5 and #6 had a lot of lags or skips in the audio.
Thanks for the heads up @Joshua.Huilar I updated the file and had forgot to set the permissions back to public viewing. Sorry for any inconvenience. I'll take a look at the skipping audio. Not sure what is going on there, those files didn't change.
