  • Components in the "Primary Presentation" section contain the video, test, benefits, credits and certificate. These components should be completed sequentially from the top to the bottom, as lower level components will only be unlocked after completion of the components above it. For instance, you must view at least 90% of a presentation video before you can open the class test.
  • All the areas in a VES Class, including the presentation videos, will retain your progress. You do not have to finish an area or class in one session. 
  • Presentation videos are provided in an interactive (SCORM) format for more effective learning. Because the videos are interactive, you may have to bypass a pop-up blocker message before the video will start.
