Online Training – Knowledge Check Answers

The Knowledge Checks in the modules are sometimes poorly worded. Please use this approach to the Knowledge Checks:

  1. Make a good-faith effort to answer the Knowledge Check based on the course content and Submit your answer. If your answer is not what the module is expecting, it will direct you to the page in the Participant Manual where that content is discussed.
  2. Open the Participant Manual (top menu, book icon on the right) and re-read that section.
  3. Make a second good-faith effort to answer the Knowledge Check.
  4. If that fails, then use the Knowledge Check Answers below to continue in the course module.

NOTE: At least one of the Knowledge Checks “mixes up” the order of the answers. So match by the question text, not the order given here.
