How does the RAISE system work? Education, Testing & Verification
Students progress through the 5 sections of the module. Students can work section by section, returning to the module after completing one or any number of sections, or they can complete the entire module at one time.
At the end of each section students must pass a test to move to the next section. Tests are generated off a random data base of questions.
Once the student reviews all the section materials and successfully completes the testing process, they have completed the module.
