MARVELous Maine Week 9

Learning Express

Interested in challenging, learning or reviewing skills.....at the Public Library???!!! Well if that sounds odd, it's not that is... not any more at the Acton Public Library OR from your home!
There are some easy "set-up" steps to creating an account and then you are on your way to educating and testing yourself. Let's check this out to see if maybe this avenue will be helpful for you.

I've created the account and if you are interested, need help- contact me!! Now let's see what is offered for learning. There are so many learning centers!! I'm going to check out "Jobs and Career" that has skills for improving math-personal finance-public speaking-science, writing and grammar. I've tried "reading for information" practice test. I answered several questions and then went right to ending the test. There is a choice to return and finish the test if this choice was a mistake, but it wasn't. I liked the idea that another window pops up to alert the tester one more time that there is no returning once continuing. There is a very understandable scoring system that breaks down, also the option of reviewing each question and the correct answers along with why the others would not be correct. I tend to stress with tests but this was very low key and easy to understand.
In Job Search and Workskills I downloaded the "Career Changers Manual". The contents offers 10 good topics to reflect upon such as if you're ready for a career change, understanding options, and marketing yourself.
After several tries in the search box for an occupation I found "computer specialist"offered 57 courses,  12 ebooks and 31 tests. The ebooks that were given were mostly about Real Estate Sales exams, not quite sure what happened there....so I loaded one onto my center. I can save it or just open it and it's very easy to maneuver in and gave addresses of agencies from all over the country.
