Computer Use & Technology Policy

As an RC agent, it’s up to you to buy and take care of your own computer, and keeping it updated is super important for your day-to-day work.

Computer Use & Technology Policy

To best serve your clients, we ask our agents to maintain a reliable laptop with updated hardware and software. We also offer a few desktop computer workstations at the RC Fresno and RC Clovis offices.

RC Workstation Guidelines

Please limit your sessions to 30 minutes, and when finished, double click the RESET icon to log yourself out and clear your data for the next agent.
