EETC Opens Online Practice Tests
The Equipment & Engine Training Council (EETC) now offers online practice tests to provide technicians and students with an excellent way to gauge their EETC certification test readiness. The EETC Practice Tests are delivered exclusively online at www.eetc.org. Technicians and students prepare for their next EETC certification exam by trying out questions of similar content and format to those used on the real EETC exams. The practice tests are 50 minutes each with 60 multiple-choice questions, and provide feedback in the form of a performance report.
The EETC Practice Tests are $15 per each for members (manufacturer, distributor, dealer, association, associate and premium individual member accounts; $10 per practice test for full-time students (to receive the “full-time student” discount, the school must have an active high school or college membership with a sub-account set up for the student); and $25 per practice test for individual free member accounts. All practice tests are non-returnable, non-exchangeable and non-refundable, and are available for one year from date of purchase. There is a two-week waiting period to purchase an additional practice test of the same type, and an individual may only purchase two practice exams of the same type annually.
