Completing an Assignment

Universities, workforce development entities, non-profits, and other organizations utilize assignments to help them assign specific questions or lessons to their users.

Keep in mind that assignments are a little bit different than Practice Sets. You may have a due date, time/take limits, or specific review criteria.

Assignment videos are now stored in My Videos along with your Practice videos.
