Novell Certified NetWare Engineer (CNE)
Assessment Test Diskette
The Certified NetWare Engineer Assessment Test is designed to help
you evaluate your NetWare skills. It will also give you practice
answering questions of a similar format to those on the actual CNE
certification exams.
Because this test covers the concepts you are required to know for
CNE certification, the higher you score, the closer you may be to
actually becoming a CNE. However, the Assessment Test does not serve
as an actual certification exam, nor does performance on this test
guarantee or directly correlate to the degree of success you may have
on the actual CNE certification exams.
You may take the quizzes one at a time, in any order, and you may
repeat each quiz as often as you wish. The quizzes are not scored as
pass or fail. The numerical score enables you to evaluate the
quality of your performance and decide whether you would benefit from
the training prescriptions provided.
At the end of each section quiz, your numerical score will appear
along with recommended study materials, called "prescriptions."
Prescriptions for each section are not customized based upon the
section score, but display all recommended study materials for that
section. 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 CNE Assessment Test program
1. Place the diskette containing the CNE Assessment Test into a
disk drive.
2. Transfer control to that drive (e.g., A: then <ENTER>)
3. At the prompt for the disk drive, type CNE then <ENTER>.
If you are having problems running the CNE Assessment Test, 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 two 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 see a Test List. The test list
is covered on two menus. At either of these menus you should choose
one of the tests.
After you make the test choice, you will see an Options Menu. You
may choose to take a test, see the reports on previous tests you have
taken, or return to the Test List.
Choosing Take a Test 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 from 6 to 20
questions dealing with this section.
Taking a Test
All of the questions in the CNE Assessment Test 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 and Prescriptions
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 section score or See Prescriptions.
If you choose to see prescriptions a list of appropriate sections
from Novell Education Student Manuals, the Novell Product Red
Manuals and the Novell CBT products will be displayed. If you study
the material outlined in the prescriptions you will likely increase
your score on that section when you take the test again. You may
Print these prescriptions along with your score if you wish.
