Management Module (EM) comes complete with the source code and it
runs under your own domain and site. You don't
have to pay any recurring fees or rely on a 3rd

package online? |
| A. |
You bet! You will immediately
receive a password to log in and download the
code, watch the videos, listen to the audios and
print out the PDF documents. Instant access, 24/7.
|
| Q. |
Why you choose ASP 3.0
as a development language over other languages for
the Exam Management Module? |
| A. |
Currently, there are many
development languages with nice features, for
instance PHP, CFM, JSP, and .NET are all powerful
development languages, as good as ASP 3. Hardware
is getting cheaper too, having a 4 CPU server is
now more affordable than ever. There are allot of
debates going on wither to upgrade ASP based
applications to .NET but for us, we honestly see
no great advantage in doing so. As you can see for
yourself that many sites are still not making the
shift to .NET (domain registrar godaddy.com, is
still running on ASP, even Microsoft's official
website has many sections still written in ASP).
We tend to focus more on the flexibility and the
reliability of the application, rather than on
what platform it's running on. Many ASP based
sites reportedly handles huge amounts of traffic
and data exchanges just fine (over three thousand
unique visitors per day is the norm). However, if
a customer requires us to develop a .NET version
of the suite, we are more than happy to help, as a
separate contract.
|
| Q. |
I really want to get your
Exam Management Module, but I'm not having allot of
Trainees looking for a system to manage exams yet, should I wait? |
| A. |
You certainly could, but it
would be smarter to be prepared when your Trainees
number grow and even for a corporate, its would be
wise to start letting your employees getting used
to the idea of constant training and
qualification. You can
have a company policy to implement the
"certification process" for either large
or small numbers of Trainees.

| Q. |
How is The Exam
Management Module different from other CBT
software? |
| A. |
It's completely different
because it address the core issues in manual test
taking process. It can select random questions
from a pool of many questions. and it offers login
security for each test taker. You have more visibility
as an instructor to set up multiple exams
for a variety of subjects and at the same time,
you are confidant that questions are different for
each test-taker. Later, you wont need to manually
grade those tests as its done automatically and
you already have a record for each trainees along
with their scores.
|
| Q. |

of exam takers and exams? |
| A. |
No, you can create as many as
you want, as for the questions pool, you can create
any number, add sound files, Images and videos.
You can offer a media-rich environment for yours
trainees for practice and for official records.

| Q. |
Paper based Exams with
punch cards has been around for years, what
makes your Exam Management Module any different? |
| A. |
Yes, Paper based exams,
equipped with punch cards correction machines has
been around for years. The challenge is they are
not affordable to many small to medium size
businesses or schools. The Exam Management Module
does all that in addition to other features and it
wont cost you too much resources to have it
operational. You can use your current
web-server. It can be installed easily under
shared hosting, co-existing with your other
web-applications.
|
| Q. |
How soon can I expect to see results? |
| A. |
Many clients report that they
can manage multiple exams at the same time, they
transformed a typical computer lab to a
test-center by directing the trainees to the URL
of the Exam Management module. After that, each
user logs-in with their username and password and
take the exam they choose. Usually this room can
be monitored by one assistant to avoid trainees
from talking to each others or use different aids.
The systems feed each test-taker with different
questions than the other.
