Exam format The exams are generally a mix of multiple choice and true false questions. Courses are considered interactive as they offer a study guide/review with feedback. Any non-interactive courses are noted. Some states define interactive differently so please review your state's guidelines. We suggest that you print out the exam and have it handy as you go through the on-line study guide. It can be a helpful reference. The on-line exam and the paper exam that you can print from the catalog page are the same. In addition, our computer courses offer practice exercises to help reinforce concepts taught. We also offer help desk support via email.
