Tips for Navigating FET

Throughout this training, you will encounter the following types of activities:

  • Handout: This icon indicates that there is content to refer to in your FET handout.
  • Think Spot: An ungraded opportunity to reflect on the topic discussed and likely is tied to the course handout. It is recommended that you download or print the handout to have on hand while you complete the courses.
  • Check Your Knowledge: A graded quiz to check your understanding of the topic(s) covered. These can be True/False, Multiple Choice, or Fill in the Blank. Check Your Knowledge quizzes are complete when 80% of the questions are answered correctly (unless otherwise indicated). You may take the Check Your Knowledge quizzes multiple times until 80% is achieved.
  • Application Assignments: A variety of graded assignments that have you apply what you have learned to demonstrate the use of specific knowledge, skills, and tools that enhance training.
  • Embedded Videos: Throughout the courses there are videos from various YouTube channels. These videos must be viewed in their entirety before moving on to the next topic. If you encounter a problem with a video please use the “Contact Us” button at the bottom of the page and include the name of the video or topic you are having trouble with.
