Summary
End of Lesson Test

This is a self-paced course that and can be saved and resumed during any point. Assessment question and answer sessions during the course monitor the students’ progress, and support the student’s progression, and learning objectives. There is a test at the end of each course. The questions on the test are completely based on the materials covered in the specific course. The student must get 70% or better to pass the test. If 70% is not achieved, then the training system automatically takes the student back through the course to review the materials that were missed on the test. The student is then returned to the test to try again for a second attempt if needed.

CEU courses provided by Successful Solutions Professional Development LLC are offered in partnership with Smart Horizons, and can be applied toward the educational requirements of a National CDA Credential or CDA Renewal as required by the Council for Professional Recognition.

Great course

Posted by Nancy on 14th May 2014

I love your trainings. They are very convenient and it is easy to put together a package to satisfy the number of STARS credits I need each year. It is great that you are adding more and more options.
Love all the options for classes!

Online and able to do it at home when I had time. I didn't have to go anywhere or do it on someone else's schedule! Wish it had an option to PAUSE during the audio part instead of having to replay the whole page. Maybe its my home computer but I couldn't do that! Frustrating when children come in to talk to me and I have to start over.
