The official web page for this course is located here.


Three competency tests

You must complete three competency tests -- one for each of the three competencies -- by selecting Test01, Test02, and Test03 in the left-side menu in Blackboard.

Each test will disappear from Blackboard when the scheduled submission deadline expires.

You may take each test up to two times before it expires. Your highest score among the two scores for each test will be used to compute your final grade.

Study for the tests

A set of review questions is provided for each competency to help you study for the competency tests. The questions are similar to the questions that you will find on the test for that competency. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you study the material until you thoroughly understand the material covered by those questions.

Feedback on the tests

Students will receive some feedback as soon as they submit the test but they are not allowed to take notes on that information.

You should consider your first attempt on each of the tests to be a learning experience and make that attempt well before the deadline for the test. Although you will receive feedback when you complete the test, you will not be allowed to copy that feedback and take it with you when you leave the testing facility. Therefore, you should allow plenty of time to study that feedback before shutting down the session and leaving the testing facility.

Taking the tests

Distance Learning students

Distance Learning (DIL) students must complete their online Blackboard tests in an ACC Academic Testing Center unless prior arrangements for remote testing have been made. This course does not allow for testing using Respondus Monitor but it does allow for remote testing.

If you are required to take your tests in an ACC Academic Testing Center, it is your responsibility to make all necessary arrangements with the testing center to complete the tests, including accessibility, hours of operation, etc. It is also your responsibility to comply with the Testing Center Guidelines.
