DETERMINATION OF READINESS FOR A COURSE

These questions are designed for people who have not taken the PowerPoint – Level 1 course and think they should start at the PowerPoint – Level 2 course (having either been self-taught or using the program, or earlier version, for some time).

CTC Computer Training is dedicated to the highest possible quality of computer instruction. The recommended score at the bottom of the quiz has been carefully calculated to ensure that people attending a higher level course are as prepared as the rest of the people in attendance.

We therefore ask that if your score does not meet the recommended prerequisite score at the bottom of the quiz that you not sign up for the higher level course. Attending a higher course level when you lack the prerequisite skills takes away from the quality of instruction for the rest of the class. Not everyone needs to have the same skill level – just a certain minimum level of preparedness.
