Testing Formats and Theory
Traditional testing
Traditional tests typically contain 60-70 test items and deliver the same set of questions to every test taker, regardless of the test taker's level of knowledge or proficiency. Your score on a traditional test depends on the number of questions you answer correctly. If you know a great deal about a topic, you can expect to answer more questions correctly than someone who knows less. Traditional tests have a long history and have proven very useful.
Practicum testing
In addition to Traditional testing, Novell Training Services delivers practicum testing. The Novell Practicum, is designed to be extremely rigorous. It tests your working skills, not just your testing skills. The biggest problem in the industry is a shortage of skilled IT professionals. Bottom line is that employers are looking for individuals with experience, knowledge, and proven IT skills. Employees, and potential employees, need a way to prove that they are the best at what they do.
"Just a well presented course, great instructor, one of the best courses I have attended in a long time. Also very useful in the real world which is a real bonus."
"The trainer was very skilled, had in-depth knowledge of the product and was able to incorporate cases in the session to demonstrate features which we can use in our installation immediately. The subject of the course was handled thoroughly, and the ATT gave us the hints and nuts & bolts we needed to pinpoint all the issues we haven't been able to solve ourselves. We do now have a toolkit of features and functionality that we can provide to our customers. This enhanced our relationship with the customers who have chosen to use our solution."
