Navigating the course
This course will cover 5 hours of instructions. Our course contains nine learning modules with a course recap and there is no final exam. Each module ends with a quiz.
Each chapter consists of several topics from the title page for each section. Simply scroll down to read content and interact with any activities you see on the page.
You must complete all topics and quizzes in order to move to the next chapter. You can move back and forth with the "previous" and "next" buttons.
If you cannot move forward to the next chapter, it means you did not complete some part of the activity in the current chapter. If you did not complete the time requirements for the section you will be directed to go back to the chapter and review it until the required time expires.
To navigate to a specific chapter please use the table of contents and click on the desired section. Additional tools are found at the top of the page in the Account menu. Note: you can only choose chapters that you have completed.
