After completing all of the lessons the student will navigate to the section that provides the review study sheet and the worksheet. Once these have been completed, the student will go through another learning technique called knowledge checks for that module.

The final portion of the course will be a 90 question final assessment. This assessment will be the only graded portion that will count towards the award of the certificate of completion. The score will be given upon completion of the test. The student must score a 75% or higher in order to pass the assessment.

If the score was above the minimum level, the parent/instructor may access the Certificate of Comletion online. Should the score be below the accepted level, the student can review the course and take it again. The student may take the final assessment as many times as necessary in order to successfully reach the minimum level. We do recommend the student review after a sub-minimum score.
