The Society of Broadcast Engineers has released its CertPreview practice exams in a new online format.
“SBE CertPreview allows people preparing to take an SBE certification exam to evaluate their readiness through the sample tests,” the society said.
“The sample tests have been offered in software formats for decades. The new SBE CertPreview is a web-based system, which allows the sample tests to be used on nearly any device format.”
It noted that sample tests are available for most levels of SBE certification (see list below).
“Each test level includes a range of sample questions that are based on the same questions used on SBE Certification exams. A user can take the sample test as many times as he or she would like. The system will grade the sample exam and provide basic feedback as to the correct answer.”
The announcement was made by SBE President Ted Hand and Certification Committee Chair Ralph Hogan. The latter said, “The web-based version is a significant advancement over the previous installed applications. And it all started with paper sample tests.”
