That will keep you on track to complete within your 8 month schedule. Apprentices can view only the first topic module, and open the following module by earning a minimum score of 65% on each exam. . . one module at a time however, an overall averaged grade of 75% is required to successfully pass the program and receive a certificate of completion. At the mid-point of each year’s study, students will take a mid-term exam that covers all the material in the first half of the program.
