The package will take approximately 30-45 minutes to complete. Participants do not have to complete the package all at once; you can dip in and out of the module and the system will monitor your progress. Once fully completed take the knowledge test which will also be recorded by the database. The system will give you the option to print yourself a certificate and completion will be recorded in the Workforce Development Training Database.
