Grades

First you will take a practice test and respond to a few questions to determine the plan for your specific learning needs. This score does not affect your grade. Next , your plan will tell you what your goal should be to get a passing score. Then, you will set goals for yourself to help you meet or exceed the required goal. When you have attained the required goal in that section you will be allowed to move to the next goal until you have reached the 'pinnacle' and have completed the course. Participants must complete all sections at a minimum 90% to get a passing grade. Some sections require 100% to move to the next section.
