Assessments of Skills and Knowledge

Completing Assessments of Skills and Knowledge is a great way to earn credit toward your degree. You use the knowledge and skills that you already have to pass exams and earn college credit at Purdue Global. You can complete an Assessment of Skills and Knowledge directly through Purdue Global or complete a standardized exam through approved organizations outside of the University.

Undergraduate Students

You can test out of a course and still earn credit by attaining a predetermined score on an Assessment of Skills and Knowledge.

Students in the Master of Business Administration, Master of Science in Management and Leadership, or Master of Science in Finance

You can register for the GB512X Assessment of Skills and Knowledge, which assesses your skills in business communications. If you pass GB512X, you will earn 4 credits toward your degree.

Cost: $100

Seminars

Seminars are live, virtual meetings you can have with your instructor and classmates to review course concepts. They are available in some standard, non-ExcelTrack programs.

As soon as you have access to your registered courses at the start of the preview period (the Sunday before the term begins), check your course syllabus to see if a weekly seminar is included in them. Your instructor may include seminars that are not weekly or may not include seminars at all.
