Watch the video, take the quiz, and add 1 hour to your timesheet. Copy and paste the quiz questions and answers into a Word document and email the file to TBD.

One thing I will say, I want you to really put some thought into your answers. Avoid answering in single word responses. I want you to give me a detailed answer, and where you feel appropriate, I really want you to explain your answer. Defend your position. Single-word responses will be marked as wrong because it’s showing me that you don’t even care enough to give me a detailed response.

Upon sending in your quiz, you will then have to schedule an appointment with us for your quiz discussion. This is ALL mandatory.

Please note:
If you send your quiz in any format other than a .doc it WILL NOT be accepted.
