Progress to further sections of the course is restricted until the test at the end of the current module is successfully completed.

Course Agenda

Each module is completed independently by the student, who then takes a quiz. Passing each quiz allows access to subsequent modules. At the end of all the modules is a final exam, the result of which determines if a student passes the course. While there is no instructor, the participant can go back and review any previous module whenever they wish. Alternatively, they may contact a site administrator with more specific questions via email.
