Assessment

The LMS uses practice exams prepare you for your exams differently and more effectively than the traditional exam preps on the market. You will have practice quizzes after each module to ensure you are confident on the topic you have completed before proceeding.

This will allow you to gauge your effectiveness before moving to the next module in your course.

These exams are on average 100 questions to ensure you are 100% prepared before taking your certification exam (not included).
