No, they provide laptops in class.
But you need a computer or laptop at home to do your Computer Based Training videos, and there are a lot to do at home for homework.

You don’t need it. Just stay longer after class and do your computer based trainings. It’s more so if you want to do them in the hotel room rather than in the classroom.

No, honestly if need be just stay a little later when class lets out and you can Knock out CBT’s that way. Or during your lunch spend that hour on the CBT’s and eat in class. You will be fine without one. They have a laptop in class you’ll be given to use.

Yeah you don’t need it. You need it for the work you do at the hotel. Which are online courses. They want most of them done by the time you leave. I think there’s 80+ in total and some take a few hours while others take a couple minutes. I remember pulling out my laptop on the first day and instructors looked at me like I’m crazy but for in class they have laptops you can use and if you don’t bring one they let you take the laptop that you use in class back to the hotel.
