The purpose of the academic leveling course is to help develop your foundational business knowledge so that you will be more successful with your degree program.
The Academic Leveling Course modules are self-contained. No other resources or materials are necessary to complete the Academic Leveling Course Modules. You do not need to prepare for the pre-tests because they are meant to show you your baseline knowledge level and to help you focus your subsequent learning for weaker areas. Your completion of the individual learning module will prepare you for the post-test.
Please follow the instructions in your admissions letter.
At the conclusion of the self-registration process, a hyperlinked course name will be displayed. When you click the hyperlink, your web browser will open to the training modules. This is the best method to start the Academic Leveling Courses.
If you do not begin the Academic Leveling Courses at the end of the self- registration process, you can also access the training modules by using the e-mail sent to you upon completion of the self-registration process. This e-mail also contains a hyperlinked course to take you to the Academic Leveling Courses.

The purpose of the post-test is to assess your knowledge and verify your understanding of the topic’s concepts. However, the purpose of the module is for your educational benefit. Therefore, you are allowed to take the post-test twice, if needed.
If after taking the post-test the first time and you are not satisfied with your score, you may go back and focus on those areas in the module where you missed questions and review the content. You are then free to take the post-test a second time. It is important to note that if you choose to take the post-test a second time, it will be the score of the second post-test that is recorded for the module.
If you choose to take the post-test a second time, it will be the score of the second post-test that is recorded for the module. The first score will not be recorded anywhere.
The topics you are being tested on will remain the same between the pre-test and post-test. However, every pre-test and post-test is unique, representing a random selection of questions from a large database.
You are allowed 3 minutes to answer each question. You will see the time remaining on the screen for each question during the pre-test and post-test.
You are allowed to take breaks during the training modules as often as you would like. However, during the pre-test and post-test no breaks are offered.
You have a total of three access attempts for the pre-test and a total of three access attempts for the post-test. If you have not completed the pre-test or post-test within the third access attempt, a completion certificate will be generated, assigning 0 points to unanswered questions.
You may leave and access the learning modules at your discretion. However, please refer to the previous question in regards to leaving the pre-test or post-test.
There is no time limit for completing the pre-tests and post-tests. However, you will need to check your course syllabus for any deadlines your instructor may impose. You will only get 3 access attempts for the pre-tests and posts tests.
Contact your instructor if you need the pre-test or post-test reset due to extenuating circumstances or technical difficulties. Peregrine Academic Services requires instructor/school/faculty involvement with this step in order to ensure the academic integrity of the test process.
There are 20 questions in each pre-test and post-test. Each pre-test and post-test covers an individual training module.
It depends on your previous knowledge levels. A good estimate of time is between four to six hours.
No, you may not back track. All questions must be answered in the allotted time given, otherwise the question will be graded as 0 points.
