Placement test
Hi Amber, first go ahead and sign in for the online self-assessment and prerequisite course, and once completed we will communicate with you to come to take the test and have the interview. Without these steps you are NOT enrolled into the program or received the scholarship. If you have more questions, please call (719)531-6333 ext. 6224 or 6095.
