This course gives an in-depth understanding of assessments – the types of it, how to create them, how to evaluate them. It covers all small little details which often get overlooked.
As simple though it seems I found this course a bit tough to crack, give yourself the time to understand and learn because you will have a better clarity on assessments by the end of the course..
