Adapte, what is it?

Adapte is a unique online learning system that lets you evaluate and adjust your office workstation yourself to get the most out of the equipment you’re using. It leads you through a step-by-step process of arranging your work environment and adjusting your chair, keyboard, mouse and monitor/screen. Note, however, that it is a basic tool that does not replace the expertise of an ergonomist or healthcare professional. If this is your first time using Adapte, we recommend that you go through each step because the order of the adjustments is important. At certain points we’ll ask you to select an environment or a device that best fits your situation. Make your selection and the appropriate information capsules will be displayed.
