Novell Certification Assessment Diskette
The Novell Certification Assessment Diskette is designed to help
you evaluate your NetWare knowledge. It will also give you practice
answering questions of a similar format to those on the actual
certification exams.
Because this test covers the concepts you are required to know for
certification, the higher you score, the closer you may be to
actually becoming certified. However, the tests do not serve
as actual certification exams, nor does performance on them
guarantee or directly correlate to the degree of success you may have
on the actual certification exams.
You may take the tests one at a time, in any order, and you may
repeat each as often as you wish. They are not scored as pass
or fail. The score enables you to evaluate the quality of your
performance and decide whether you would benefit from additional
instruction.
All study materials, whether self-study, instructor-led or computer-
based, are available through your local Novell Authorized Education
Center (NAEC).
We thank you for taking the challenge to "put your networking
knowledge to the test." Good Luck.
How to start the program
1. Place the diskette into a disk drive.
2. Transfer control to that drive (e.g., A: then <ENTER>)
3. At the prompt for the disk drive, type CERT then <ENTER>.
If you are having problems running the program, increase the number
of file handles on your system. This can be done by increasing the
"FILES =" parameter in your config.sys file by 5. A common number
of file handles is 20.
Program Details
When the program begins, you will see screens containing text on
the purpose of the program. Press any key to proceed past these
screens.
You will then be asked to enter your first and last names and to
confirm your entries. This creates a data file for your scores on
the tests you will subsequently take. The program will then remember
you and the scores on the tests you have previously taken each time
you use the program. These scores may be printed at any time.
After entering your name you will be given a choice of certification
programs. Choose the program in which you are interested. After
choosing the certification route, you will see a Test List. The test
list is covered on one or more menus. At these menus you should
choose a test.
After you make the test choice, you will see an Options Menu. You
may choose to take a section of topic test, see the reports on
previous tests you have taken, or return to the Test List.
Choosing to take a section will produce a menu of sections within
the test of interest. You may select any of these sections to
receive a subtest on this material. The program will present
several questions dealing with this section. Taking a topic test
will give you 30 randomly selected questions for that topic.
Taking a Test
All of the questions in the tests are multiple choice. When you
see a test question, you can choose an option by typing A, B, C,
etc., or by using the arrow keys to move the highlight bar. You
may Skip a question if you wish; however, the question will appear
again at the end of the test. You may also Cancel the test.
Canceling the test will take you back to the section menu without
giving you a score for the test.
Test Scores
When you have answered the questions, the program will save your
score to your data file and display the score for you. The score
report tells you how many questions you answered correctly out of the
number that were presented. It also displays the percent value of
your score. You can choose to Print your score.
