Preparing for TECEPs? - SirTeacherGuy - 06-29-2014
Are there guides to prepare for TECEP exams, either official ones or ones compiled by members here? Perhaps study materials for TECEP exams could be something to add to the Wiki if it isn't there already.
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Click on the TECEP exam. Then, click on "View Test Description." That document will give you a breakdown of what's on the test and recommended books for study. Instantcert also has flashcards for Operations Management, Strategic Management, and Public Relations Thought & Practice. It is strongly recommended that you read the recommended books for TECEPs and Uexcels. Those tests follow the books closely.

I purchased a used copy of the recommended textbook, one or two Editions prior and supplemented with the most current online textbook companion site. They usually have vocab, powerpoints, quizzes, games etc that help to digest the subject matter. Also, check quizlet for flashcards and youtube for course lectures.
Check your inbox, I forwarded the information I have for the following Marketing TECEPs.
1. Public Relations & Thought Practice.
2. Marketing Communications.
3: Advertising
If also interested in taking either PSY270 Psychology of Women or BUS421 Strategic Management, I still have my study notes. Both were used recently with great feedback. I also have companion websites and lecture notes for both, as well as lots of additional study material for BUS421.

Recently, I completed a couple of TECEP exams. My study method was to (long before I registered for the exams) read through the textbooks. I did not read them from page to page though, I only went through the chapter summaries and in few cases, read complete chapters of areas where I feel that I think I need to dig deeper. I equally utilised textbook companion websites and also tried my hands on several practice quizzes on Quizlet etc. In all, I'd say TECEPs are unlike SL or Saylor where one may pass without using the recommended textbooks or having a fair to very good knowledge of the material. Operations Management and Strategic Management were two TECEPS that gave me tough time. Even after the exam, I was not sure I'd pass them.

bricabrac, would it be possible for me to get your notes for the Public Relations and Psychology of Women TECEPs? I think I'm going to be taking both of them... Thanks!!!

I passed the PR exam with only InstantCert, but reading a textbook would have given me a better grade than 76. More than that though, it would have made the exam less stressful. An old text would have helped me, because there were some PR history questions the flashcards didn't cover.

Many thanks.... Trying for my first tecep soon.
