Worldwide Interactive Network, Inc. WIN Career Readiness Courseware WIN Career Readiness Courseware Guide – Administration Program page 15 Modify Settings The Modify Settings option allows the Administrator/Manager to: • Modify Title Access: Sets the level, within a title, that a student can access. • Title Access Levels: The level the student can access in a particular course is dependent upon achieving a passing score on the Posttest or the Placement test. For example, if the highest score achieved was level 5, the student can access levels 6 and lower. • Selecting PT requires the student to take the Placement test for that title before accessing the skill levels in that title. • Selecting lock‐out prevents the student from accessing that particular title. Student Progress and Setup‐Modify Settings Global Settings for All titles: To set all the titles to the same level access for the selected student: • Lock‐Out All Titles – prevents access to all titles • Assign All Placement Tests – requires the student to take the Placement test for all titles • Set All to Lowest Levels – sets the title access to level 1 for all titles • Set All to Highest Levels – sets the title access to the highest level in each title Worldwide Interactive Network, Inc.

Allow the student to re‐take the Placement Tests? Yes/No: If the setting is Yes the student may re‐take the Placement Test in all titles an unlimited number of times until all skill levels are passed. If the setting is No, once a student fails a Placement Test level or Quits the Placement Test, they will not be able to re‐take the Placement Test.
