Howdy Cristopher: We changed the grade requirement from 80% to 70% when we began recertifying the courses in August last year. We wanted to bring the passing mark to be more in line with current academic standards and to also align it with the passing grade for our face to face classes, which is 70%.
We felt this was a more accurate assessment of our classes and their difficulty. It is currently set at 70% correct as a passing grade. Please let me know if you find any of the cybersecurity classes having the old grade of 80% as the passing mark. Hmm...all the post-tests in AWR-175 Information Security For Everyone had a passing grade of 80%...

I am currently taking AWR-175 Information Security For Everyone, and it does not sound at all like what people talked about on this thread at the beginning. I have to take a pretest, then go through the entire module, then take a post-test. Even if I get 100% on the pretest (which I have), I still have to go through everything, click in different places, etc. before I can get to the post-test. Is this a change to how it used to be? Have you found a really fast way of getting through the module to be able to take the post-test?
Thanks!
The only way I know of right now is to email them. I had some problems getting the system to recognize that I had completed Module 3.... the TEEX staff moved my progress forward and enabled the post-test.

I had started to take these courses probably a year ago and just started again and had to re-enroll. The layout has definitely changed, I noticed the same thing as you where scoring a 100% on the pre test still had you go through all the modules to the post test. I think they've just updated the courses on their last validation with ACE.

Does the advice about "failing" the pretest so you don't get locked out still apply to someone starting right now? My son will begin this series Nov 1st, and I'd like to give him the best chance for success. Thanks.

The pretest doesn't count toward anything anymore; you're just required to take it before you can view the module. You have to go through the modules now. I didn't answer any questions on the pretest and would just submit it for a "0" because it was a waste of time. It's like going through the Instantcert flashcards. I don't bother with answering those either.

I think Cybersecurity for Business Professionals counts as 2 business credits - MAN-299.

Each TEEX course is worth 2 credits and takes a total of roughly 25-35 hours to complete.
