Assessment at Online Business Academy is a very straightforward process:

• When you finalize the modules, you will have to complete an online assessment. That assessment contains 30 multiple-choice questions. You will have one hour to complete these questions. Since they are segmented in sets of five you will have plenty of time to review and edit your answers. After an hour, the test will automatically end.
• You will get results immediately after the completion of the test. If you didn’t pass, you will receive a notification of a “refer,” and you will have to retake a module assessment. You can complete these modules at your own pace, as there is no deadline to complete the course.
• When you finalize modules, you can take the final written assignments that test your knowledge and understanding of the modules.
