Productive, Advanced, and Expert earners also receive a Credly badge upon completion.
Adaptive testing increases or decreases the difficulty depending on the candidate's right or wrong answers, pushing every test taker to the true limits of their skill and knowledge. In-application questions ensure your students can apply what they've learned in a real-world environment.

Students begin with a formative, pre-course assessment to identify current skill levels. Instructors gather data and adjust lesson plans based on student results.
Instructors match courseware in the Isograd Learning Lab to students’ proficiency levels and intended course objectives.
Once courseware is completed, students take a summative assessment to verify their skills match the intended proficiency levels. If skill gaps still exist, instructors can assign additional course content.
When instructors are satisfied with student progress, certification exams are given. Certification exams are proctored and generally range from 60 to 90 minutes.
