Test-preparation courses
Today's competitive job market calls for extraordinary employees. In many fields, passing an industry-recognized exam can help set you apart from the competition. In other professions, such as teaching, the successful completion of general-knowledge and/or content-specific tests is a criterion for the licensing and certification process required by many states.
Our test-preparation courses, like our individual courses and certificate programs, can give you a competitive edge in your field of interest. And, as with all of our continuing education offerings, these courses feature small class sizes, online and on-campus options — where available — and innovative online resources to help you strengthen your test-taking skills.
Select from these test-prep options:
Human resource management (PHR® and SHPR® exams)
Project management (PMP® exam)
Teaching (CBEST®, The Praxis Series™ and TExES™ exams)
Each test-preparation collection contains multiple courses that complement each other in preparing you for the test in that field. Choose a single course, or take the entire collection, to brush up on key topics and gain the confidence you need for exam day.
With the exception of teaching test-prep, these courses are non-credit bearing. To learn more please select your area of study in the search tool on the left of this page, or sign up to speak with an enrollment Advisor.
