Prometric's DSST Credit by Exam Program Launches with New Content
BALTIMORE (Business Wire EON) July 14, 2008 -- While the DSST program offers a total of 37 exams in unique subject areas, the 10 exam titles launching with new content are: Substance Abuse, Introduction to Computing, Ethics in America, Criminal Justice, Personal Finance, Management Information Systems, Here's to Your Health, Fundamentals of College Algebra, Principles of Statistics and Introduction to World Religions. A refreshed practice exam is also available for each title.
Regular content updates keep the DSST exams compliant with the rigorous standards of the American Council on Education (ACE), which recommends the exams for credit, as well as relevant to test takers and aligned to college curriculums. It also enhances the security and integrity of the exams through prevention of item overexposure.
"The colleges that accept DSST credits do so based on the ability of the exams to match up with certain course requirements, and this alignment is critical to the success of the DSST program," said Jean Steinke, DSST Senior Product Planner at Prometric. "College administrators, awarding bodies and students should rest assured that the subject matter and content of all DSST exams are reflective of course content and representative of an evolved level of knowledge in any of the subject areas."
About the DSST Program
Almost any adult who has gone back to school is familiar with credit by exam programs that allow them to earn college credit for life experience. The DSST program is Prometric's proprietary program of 37 exams in college subject areas such as Social Sciences, Math, Applied Technology, Business, Physical Sciences and Humanities. Learners who take and pass a DSST exam are given college credit applied toward their degree.
