Gale Training

[00:00:05.709]
Hello, everyone. Thank you for joining our gale

[00:00:07.759]
101 session today, we're going to be talking

[00:00:10.028]
about Gale Presents: Peterson's Test Prep

[00:00:12.148]
My name is Amber Winters

[00:00:14.278]
and I am your senior training consultant for the

[00:00:16.388]
day. So I have a brief

[00:00:18.420]
agenda here for everyone. First, we're going to

[00:00:20.798]
run through a quick overview of the resource.

[00:00:23.298]
So we'll talk about what you're going to find within the resource

[00:00:26.079]
where you're going to find it and things like that.

[00:00:28.298]
Then we'll spend the majority of the time actually walking

[00:00:30.620]
through the platform. So you can get a feel of the different

[00:00:32.679]
workflows that are available for your users.

[00:00:35.478]
And at the end of the session, we will have time for any

[00:00:37.569]
questions you have and I do have some wrap

[00:00:39.658]
up contact information for you as well.

[00:00:42.700]
Ok. So let's go ahead and get started here. So

[00:00:44.889]
Gale Presents: Peterson's Test Prep is of course

[00:00:47.069]
designed to help improve the scores

[00:00:49.149]
of your users from high school all the way up

[00:00:51.250]
to graduate students

[00:00:53.490]
as well as adult learners.

[00:00:55.868]
And as you would expect, kind of the key

[00:00:58.079]
section of this resource is going to be the prep

[00:01:00.250]
for an exam section that's going to

[00:01:02.408]
link your users to A P

[00:01:04.659]
testing, standardized testing, like the AC

[00:01:07.260]
TSAT, as well as other

[00:01:09.290]
college prep courses and things of that nature.

[00:01:12.299]
We also have a separate section specifically

[00:01:14.599]
for vocational tests. So if you have

[00:01:16.769]
adult learners who are trying to

[00:01:18.969]
move forward in their careers and maybe change careers,

[00:01:21.489]
we've pulled out vocational tests into a whole

[00:01:23.650]
separate section, So they'll be able to browse through those

[00:01:26.168]
as needed.

[00:01:28.219]
In addition to those test prep sections, though, we

[00:01:30.329]
also have some additional supports

[00:01:32.558]
materials to help your learners kind of move

[00:01:34.680]
forward. The first is going to be a school.

[00:01:37.138]
And so school and scholarship

[00:01:39.519]
search that's going to let them kind of find

[00:01:42.138]
where they want to go, they're going to see,

[00:01:44.430]
maybe if they have a specific school of mind,

[00:01:46.659]
they can look at the demographics of that school, maybe

[00:01:48.870]
some background information about it or they

[00:01:50.969]
can just search based on their interests, you know, if

[00:01:53.000]
they have taken the exam,

[00:01:55.260]
you know, and they're planning going to school, they

[00:01:57.359]
can kind of dig in to see what they can find.

[00:02:00.010]
And we also have the explore career options

[00:02:02.250]
section which is going to allow

[00:02:04.379]
your users to kind of dig into different

[00:02:06.609]
careers. It has a nice resume builder and it also

[00:02:08.899]
provides career advice for anyone who's

[00:02:11.139]
either looking to start a new career or just move

[00:02:13.360]
forward in their current career.

[00:02:16.610]
So let's dive in a little bit more into

[00:02:18.649]
our exam prep features. So the main

[00:02:20.819]
part of these exam prep kind of

[00:02:22.849]
units are going to be the practice

[00:02:24.960]
test. And some of the most popular tests include

[00:02:27.118]
the SAT and the PSAT the

[00:02:29.330]
AC T. We've got a huge collection of A P

[00:02:31.399]
tests, but we also have things like grad

[00:02:33.729]
prep, grad school prep. So like

[00:02:36.288]
the GRE the LS A, all

[00:02:38.338]
that information is going to be on this platform.

[00:02:40.550]
We do also have a test prep for

[00:02:42.580]
the US citizenship test and that is

[00:02:44.849]
kind of frequently asked for

[00:02:46.899]
especially in the public library realm.

[00:02:48.949]
So we do include that on this platform here as well

[00:02:51.689]
and all of our practice tests are timed.

[00:02:53.939]
So they can kind of get an understanding of

[00:02:56.229]
how they're managing their time, you know, if they're blowing

[00:02:58.610]
past the time allotted, then they know they may need

[00:03:00.679]
to kind of change their testing method.

[00:03:03.300]
But what's great is users will be able to take

[00:03:05.460]
as much time as they need. So even

[00:03:07.538]
though in the real world, the SAT has a time

[00:03:09.800]
limit when they're practicing it, they can

[00:03:11.868]
take the time that they need and it's going to let them know

[00:03:13.919]
how much time they took as well.

[00:03:16.520]
And these tests are automatically graded,

[00:03:18.788]
excluding any essay responses.

[00:03:21.250]
The essay responses once submitted

[00:03:23.368]
the your users are going to see a sample

[00:03:25.750]
of a high scoring essay.

[00:03:28.558]
So they'll still get the practice writing the essay,

[00:03:30.719]
but it won't be directly scored.

[00:03:34.199]
And many of our tests have more than one testing

[00:03:36.659]
option. So you'll see here,

[00:03:39.659]
we have these listed with this

[00:03:41.830]
is practice test one. So we may go back

[00:03:43.889]
and take practice test two for the SAT.

[00:03:46.550]
So we're getting some different questions. We're not running

[00:03:48.618]
through the same questions over and over

[00:03:50.659]
again. So

[00:03:53.808]
other exam prep features include

[00:03:55.909]
full ebooks that are going to be related

[00:03:58.278]
to whatever test they're taking and they

[00:04:00.368]
are downloadable. So if your users want to take

[00:04:02.610]
them offline with them, they can do that

[00:04:05.750]
flash cards are also included for

[00:04:07.838]
quite a few of our different different

[00:04:10.899]
tests. So like the AC TS AC

[00:04:12.969]
A lot of the A P tests will have

[00:04:15.618]
really simple interactive flash cards so they

[00:04:17.738]
can just click into them and you say they can

[00:04:19.889]
turn

[00:04:21.807]
and see the definition. So literally just a virtual

[00:04:24.108]
flash card available for them.

[00:04:26.218]
We also include some different supplemental articles.

[00:04:28.548]
A lot of these are going to include test,

[00:04:30.579]
taking strategies specific for different tests

[00:04:33.259]
as well as some basic test information. So

[00:04:35.319]
your users know what to expect the day of the test.

[00:04:39.108]
Finally, we do include links to quite a

[00:04:41.129]
few different test websites as well. So

[00:04:43.379]
after they're done with their prep, they

[00:04:45.488]
may want to just go in and actually register

[00:04:47.759]
for the test. They can oftentimes click directly

[00:04:50.160]
into that test websites

[00:04:52.199]
and you'll be able, they'll be able to

[00:04:54.439]
register for that test.

[00:05:00.009]
You know, again, as I mentioned, our vocational test

[00:05:02.199]
prep is pulled out separately.

[00:05:04.410]
What's great though is the the platform

[00:05:06.778]
looks very, very similar. I will say some of the

[00:05:08.819]
vocational tests actually

[00:05:10.959]
link out to um different websites

[00:05:13.569]
and different kind of um

[00:05:15.790]
groups that run these test preps.

[00:05:17.809]
So they, some of them look a little bit different,

[00:05:19.858]
but some of the most popular vocational

[00:05:22.459]
test preps include the firefighter

[00:05:24.920]
and law enforcement, cosmetology,

[00:05:27.238]
military plumber and

[00:05:29.329]
electrician, as well as a lot of different medical

[00:05:31.500]
options, things like medical assistance and

[00:05:33.619]
dental assistance.

[00:05:35.309]
So users will be able to access all of those in one

[00:05:37.470]
place under our vocational test prep

[00:05:39.500]
section.

[00:05:42.548]
And I'll just to move forward again, our school and scholarship

[00:05:45.209]
features, we do have a searcher

[00:05:47.699]
browse and a filter option for all of our

[00:05:50.100]


[00:05:51.059]
our schools and our scholarships. So

[00:05:53.399]
you will be able to kind of search through whatever

[00:05:55.678]
they want to search by. They can maybe search by

[00:05:57.750]
school type um or if they're

[00:05:59.798]
searching for a scholarship, maybe an award

[00:06:02.209]
type or a certain program, they'll be able to

[00:06:04.269]
find that here on our platform.

[00:06:06.639]
And when they click into an entry, we give a nice overview

[00:06:09.189]
for them. So they're going to know, you'll

[00:06:11.309]
see, we have a little bit about the population

[00:06:13.548]
of the school, um how

[00:06:15.790]
much it costs a year where it's

[00:06:17.829]
found kind of the settings. So

[00:06:19.850]
they were able to go through and take a look and we do the same

[00:06:21.869]
thing for scholarships as well. They're going to get

[00:06:24.199]
a background of the scholarship, the

[00:06:26.379]
organization who's providing the scholarship,

[00:06:29.209]
the requirements and things like that.

[00:06:32.509]
And also within this section, we have a financial

[00:06:34.660]
aid quiz. So if your users

[00:06:36.819]
are kind of planning college, but maybe are not

[00:06:38.959]
super comfortable yet with how financial

[00:06:41.209]
aid is going to work for them. We do have

[00:06:43.278]
a fully developed quiz in here and it's going to

[00:06:45.309]
help them kind of better navigate,

[00:06:47.790]
borrowing money to go to school

[00:06:53.329]
in our career tools section. We

[00:06:55.379]
do have our full resume builder

[00:06:57.459]
where users will be able to either upload a resume.

[00:06:59.759]
They currently have to kind of tweak it or add new

[00:07:01.858]
information or they can start one from

[00:07:04.048]
scratch or using a template so they can build

[00:07:06.410]
it out. You'll see, I have a few different

[00:07:08.850]
templates listed here.

[00:07:10.988]
So they'll be able to build out and really make it nice

[00:07:13.250]
and visual and interactive. So as

[00:07:15.629]
they're applying for jobs, they kind of have the leg

[00:07:17.829]
up and having these nice organized

[00:07:20.170]
resumes.

[00:07:22.470]
We also have a full career advice section.

[00:07:25.230]
So that's going to give them a self

[00:07:27.259]
assessment, as well as some different tutorials

[00:07:29.798]
and things like salary negotiations

[00:07:32.100]
or networking.

[00:07:33.439]
Some of the different kind of soft

[00:07:35.600]
skills that they're going to need to know in their career

[00:07:37.689]
that they may not have picked on picked up on

[00:07:39.790]
previously.

[00:07:42.000]
And we also include a job search here.

[00:07:44.069]
And our job search actually runs through both

[00:07:46.428]
government and non government

[00:07:48.798]
jobs

[00:07:50.019]
and your users will be able to kind of click through.

[00:07:52.119]
You'll see they can search by location,

[00:07:54.959]
they can just run their basic search and they'll pull forward

[00:07:57.309]
these different bits of information where they

[00:07:59.428]
can save it to their account if they want to look

[00:08:01.588]
later or they can hit, learn more to

[00:08:03.920]
learn a bit, a little bit more about the job itself

[00:08:06.139]
and kind of be pushed forward to the application.

[00:08:11.160]
Now, I wanna go ahead and jump into

[00:08:13.220]
the platform here so we can take a look,

[00:08:15.869]
give me one quick second while we do

[00:08:17.889]
that. OK?

[00:08:22.369]
So here we are on the home page. So this

[00:08:24.588]
is going to be the very starting point

[00:08:26.759]
for Gail presents Peterson's test prep

[00:08:29.548]
and I will point out to you here. I haven't signed

[00:08:31.850]
in yet. So there are two sign

[00:08:33.940]
ins to get into this resource first. It's just

[00:08:36.440]
to sign into your library's instance of

[00:08:38.460]
the platform

[00:08:39.658]
and then your users will need to so to

[00:08:41.729]
log in or sign up to their own personal

[00:08:44.048]
account.

[00:08:46.119]
And you'll notice while I'm on the home page, I can

[00:08:48.158]
still see everything that

[00:08:50.219]
I have access to.

[00:08:51.908]
But this is not going to let me do anything until

[00:08:53.950]
I sign in. So users can kind of

[00:08:56.119]
click and navigate and explore around

[00:08:58.210]
before they decide to make an account.

[00:09:00.219]
But they won't be able to take any tests or,

[00:09:02.639]
you know, build a resume or anything like that until

[00:09:05.349]
they are logged in or signed up.

[00:09:07.440]
So let's go ahead and do that here.

[00:09:11.210]
I already have an account created, so I'm just going to

[00:09:13.239]
use mine.

[00:09:15.960]
So now I'm signed in. So you'll see this button

[00:09:18.149]
here, switches from a log in, sign up button to

[00:09:20.320]
a my resources button.

[00:09:22.479]
And the my resources section is

[00:09:24.548]
kind of a collection of everything I've saved.

[00:09:26.668]
When I'm walking through this platform, we'll kind

[00:09:28.700]
of take a look so you can see how that works. But

[00:09:31.080]
I do have a full my resources section that's

[00:09:33.190]
going to hold on to everything that I've chosen

[00:09:35.369]
to save.

[00:09:37.808]
Now, let's go ahead and scroll down a little bit. We can take

[00:09:40.038]
a look at some of the different work throws, we workflows

[00:09:42.658]
we have available here. So at the very

[00:09:44.840]
top,

[00:09:45.950]
you, we've broken down into these different sections

[00:09:48.168]
here. So prepare for an exam,

[00:09:50.210]
find a school or scholarship, our vocational

[00:09:52.599]
test section, our foundational skills,

[00:09:55.019]
which are going to be more basic skills

[00:09:57.058]
that your users may need to kind of brush

[00:09:59.489]
up on. So it's going to give

[00:10:01.570]
them middle school and high school

[00:10:03.759]
level science and el A and

[00:10:05.879]
things like that also computer skills. So

[00:10:08.190]
if you have maybe older

[00:10:10.418]
patrons coming into your library who are maybe

[00:10:12.609]
struggling with computer skills, need

[00:10:14.750]
to develop them for their career. This

[00:10:16.788]
brush up on foundational skills section is a really

[00:10:18.989]
nice place for them. But we also have

[00:10:21.229]
our explore career options listed here

[00:10:23.408]
and we've pulled out our US citizenship

[00:10:26.158]
section right here as well. So

[00:10:28.330]
we're trying to keep that really kind of at the forefront

[00:10:30.710]
for your users who are looking for it. So

[00:10:32.808]
right here at the top of the page, they'll be able

[00:10:34.830]
to click in to see that

[00:10:38.139]
scrolling down. It gets a little bit more detailed

[00:10:40.450]
about what's in each section. So we have

[00:10:42.469]
our improve your test score section and

[00:10:44.500]
you'll see, I can actually click into any of these,

[00:10:46.849]
either these main categories like high school

[00:10:49.070]
tests or college prep or

[00:10:51.099]
I can click directly into the test themselves.

[00:10:53.259]
So like AP

[00:10:55.330]
A P testing here

[00:10:57.139]
or our international tests here

[00:11:00.538]
scrolling down further. We have our vocational

[00:11:02.609]
test prep. Again, I can click directly into

[00:11:04.769]
any of these that I might be interested in to

[00:11:06.969]
kind of move forward.

[00:11:08.719]
Our career tools are listed here. That's where we'll find

[00:11:10.969]
our resume builder as well as our career

[00:11:13.229]
advice and job search And

[00:11:15.239]
then finally at the very bottom here, we have

[00:11:17.359]
our school or scholarship search.

[00:11:19.690]
So we'll have that listed here. You'll see,

[00:11:21.759]
we have pulled forward the financial aid quiz and

[00:11:23.830]
listed it under this section. So

[00:11:26.279]
if your users do need access to that again, it's

[00:11:28.308]
right here on this home page. So they won't need to kind

[00:11:30.450]
of search or browse through it all.

[00:11:32.469]
If they do want to search it, they can't quite see

[00:11:34.580]
what they're looking for. We do have a search at

[00:11:36.639]
the very top here and they'll be able to run through

[00:11:38.779]
a search and they can see some of the popular

[00:11:41.149]
searches that are run throughout this session throughout

[00:11:43.469]
this platform as well.

[00:11:47.288]
But let's go ahead and click into

[00:11:49.340]
one of our test options

[00:11:51.479]
here. So I'll go to advanced placement,

[00:11:53.769]
high school test so we can get a look at this here.

[00:11:56.479]
When I click into this, you'll see now it's pulling

[00:11:58.519]
forward all of the different A P

[00:12:00.678]
tests that I have available. So you'll see here.

[00:12:02.798]
Environmental science, biology, calculus.

[00:12:05.399]
You'll see, we have quite a few here

[00:12:08.989]
and I actually have some of these already saved

[00:12:11.139]
over to my resources. You see,

[00:12:13.178]
it gives me the little alert

[00:12:15.428]
that this has added to my resources.

[00:12:17.529]
So if I'm planning on coming back

[00:12:19.580]
to take another environmental science

[00:12:21.619]
practice test, I can go directly

[00:12:24.029]
to the my resources section

[00:12:26.759]
instead of having to click and navigate

[00:12:28.899]
through the resource here and your users

[00:12:31.090]
don't have to use this add to my resources

[00:12:33.558]
option. If they just want to take the test, they

[00:12:35.590]
can just click right into it

[00:12:37.279]
and they'll be launched into the test. So

[00:12:39.349]
let's go ahead and take a look. I am in fact

[00:12:41.710]
going to just click on this first one. So environmental

[00:12:44.070]
science,

[00:12:47.469]
now when I click into this here, it might take just

[00:12:49.619]
a quick second to load.

[00:12:51.298]
You'll see this is almost like a little learning

[00:12:53.469]
module kind of you'll see when I scroll

[00:12:55.729]
down, it gives me an introduction,

[00:12:57.960]
but it also gives me these nice instructional

[00:13:00.259]
videos. As I mentioned, we have flash cards

[00:13:02.269]
and other study materials. So even

[00:13:04.340]
before we get into the actual

[00:13:06.359]
practice test, we're providing information that's

[00:13:08.500]
going to help your users as they prepare

[00:13:10.599]
for these tests.

[00:13:12.879]
But let's do it. Let's jump directly into a practice

[00:13:15.090]
test here.

[00:13:19.080]
And you'll see, I've already done a couple of these here

[00:13:21.099]
on this left hand side, but

[00:13:23.399]
I can actually click back into them and I'm going to run

[00:13:25.479]
through this again.

[00:13:26.918]
Oh, this one looks like I have not submitted.

[00:13:28.940]
So I'm gonna just continue quiz

[00:13:34.469]
and you'll see it shows me on the left hand side of this

[00:13:36.619]
page here. What questions

[00:13:38.639]
I need to answer and how many I have left.

[00:13:41.538]
Let's just answer a few of these. So we can see what

[00:13:43.700]
this looks like you'll see as I answer, it

[00:13:45.779]
automatically saves for me. So if

[00:13:47.808]
I do need to, you know, head out, but

[00:13:49.899]
I ran out of time or something, it will save this here

[00:13:52.058]
for me.

[00:13:52.918]
Let's go ahead and just do a couple more

[00:13:55.428]
so we can see what this looks like. Hopefully

[00:13:58.190]
I'll get some right. So you guys can see what a correct

[00:14:00.308]
answer looks like. We'll see.

[00:14:02.849]
So, and you'll see, it will go on to the next

[00:14:04.859]
page. It just shows 10 questions

[00:14:07.158]
at a time. But on this left hand side here, you'll

[00:14:09.408]
see that there are actually 100 questions. So

[00:14:11.529]
this is actually a 10 page long

[00:14:13.548]
quiz. I'm not going

[00:14:15.558]
to do the next page. Of course, I'm just going to hit

[00:14:17.599]
submit quiz right here.

[00:14:20.529]
It's going to warn me that I didn't answer 93

[00:14:22.678]
questions. And what's great is your

[00:14:24.719]
students or your users may not realize that

[00:14:26.798]
they missed a question. You know, they could have just skipped it because

[00:14:29.038]
they weren't sure and didn't realize it. What's

[00:14:31.219]
nice is before they submit, we're going to tell

[00:14:33.269]
them that and they can click right back into whatever question

[00:14:35.658]
they missed.

[00:14:36.570]
And at the very least guess, you know,

[00:14:38.609]
see if they can get their guess

[00:14:40.619]
right? But once they go through

[00:14:42.808]
that they make sure all the questions are answered.

[00:14:44.908]
We'll hit submit quiz again down here at the bottom

[00:14:52.750]
here, we go and now we'll see my score.

[00:14:55.080]
So it looks like I did get two, right. So,

[00:14:57.158]
you know, pretty impressive for just pointing,

[00:14:59.168]
clicking, right.

[00:15:00.119]
But now that we've submitted

[00:15:02.259]
this, it's going to show us what we got wrong with this

[00:15:04.320]
little red ax and then it's going to point

[00:15:06.570]
to the correct answer. And what I love

[00:15:09.099]
is underneath that it's giving the question

[00:15:11.500]
feedback as well. So it's explaining why the

[00:15:13.590]
answer is what it is. So if you got

[00:15:15.629]
it incorrect, you're going to get this nice feedback

[00:15:17.879]
here for any of them that

[00:15:19.950]
you got correctly. You'll see, it gives a little check

[00:15:22.269]
and it does still give the explanation

[00:15:24.629]
as well. So if maybe this question was

[00:15:26.840]
a guess and I still got it right.

[00:15:28.668]
It's still going to tell me why I got it right,

[00:15:30.940]
which is a nice feature, I'll be able to kind of understand

[00:15:33.759]
even though it was a guess why it was correct.

[00:15:41.408]
Now, you see, we also have our free responses

[00:15:43.570]
pulled out separately.

[00:15:45.129]
This would be the same for your standardized

[00:15:47.229]
tests that have free response answers

[00:15:49.609]
here. I can hit continue because I already started this.

[00:15:52.428]
But you'll see, it gives me a question and this is set up

[00:15:54.570]
just like they're going to see it on the A P test

[00:15:57.320]
and they have just a free

[00:15:59.509]
text box here and they'll be able to type in their answers

[00:16:02.580]
and they'll hit submit just like they did before.

[00:16:05.119]
I'm not going to submit this today, but

[00:16:07.389]
you will see the option there.

[00:16:10.798]
Now, I wanna go ahead and move forward to our vocational

[00:16:13.308]
test prep. Um But before I do,

[00:16:15.629]
are there any questions about anything? We just went

[00:16:17.750]
over? Ok.

[00:16:22.479]
I don't see any. So this actually opened up in a new

[00:16:24.668]
tab. So I'm gonna close that new tab

[00:16:26.899]
and I'm going to click back to the home page

[00:16:28.940]
here. Just so we have a landing

[00:16:31.288]
spot for us.

[00:16:34.599]
Now, scrolling down here is where we'll find our vocational

[00:16:36.950]
test prep and you'll see, I can click into

[00:16:39.080]
any of these individually to take a look.

[00:16:41.590]
Or if I scroll back up on the home page

[00:16:44.229]
and your users might do this, they may just

[00:16:46.428]
see prep for vocational te tests

[00:16:49.269]
and click here without scrolling down. That's completely

[00:16:51.580]
fine. Let's go ahead and click that

[00:16:53.399]
when I do that, it's stepping me down to different categories

[00:16:55.719]
here. So again, we have things like

[00:16:57.798]
medical and nursing, postal, social

[00:16:59.889]
work, real estate. each

[00:17:02.099]
are pulled out in their own separate sections. Let's

[00:17:04.199]
click into medical nursing here.

[00:17:09.309]
And now it's pulling me forward to the different tests

[00:17:11.430]
we have available here. Again, I have the option

[00:17:13.739]
to add these to my resources if I want to save

[00:17:15.779]
them for, save them for later or

[00:17:17.818]
I can just click directly into them and run

[00:17:19.838]
through the test.

[00:17:22.239]
I'm not going to click into the test today because I do

[00:17:24.348]
want to keep moving us forward. But our vocational

[00:17:26.858]
test prep section has been pulled out and

[00:17:28.910]
you'll see it's, it looks slightly different.

[00:17:34.650]
So if I continue down on this page here, pass

[00:17:36.670]
the vocational test prep, you'll see. We

[00:17:38.709]
have our career tools listed and we have

[00:17:40.910]
three different career tools, the career advice,

[00:17:43.439]
online, resume builder and job search.

[00:17:46.309]
So clicking into the career advice, this

[00:17:48.338]
looks similar to that practice test

[00:17:50.410]
field where it's almost like a little

[00:17:52.969]
unit on its own where you have different lessons

[00:17:55.078]
available. So you'll see things like

[00:17:57.479]
a self assessment job search,

[00:18:00.000]
learning about writing, cover letters,

[00:18:02.660]
scrolling down here, some different fa Qs.

[00:18:05.680]
One that I think

[00:18:07.759]
is really important here is the transit transitioning

[00:18:10.449]
out of the military. I like to point this one out.

[00:18:12.578]
So if you have users who are trying to

[00:18:14.640]
transition out of the military, you may want to direct

[00:18:16.750]
them here and they can kind of click through these different

[00:18:18.858]
topics to understand what the process

[00:18:21.088]
might be like and to get the support, they need

[00:18:23.199]
to make that transition,

[00:18:26.180]
we can click into any of these

[00:18:28.500]
to kind of get a feel you'll see on this left hand side,

[00:18:30.809]
it's kind of our table of contents and we can just

[00:18:32.949]
click into any of these

[00:18:36.430]
and some of them will have videos some of them

[00:18:38.449]
are going to be text based. You'll see these ones are

[00:18:40.618]
mostly text based.

[00:18:42.309]
it's going to give you information about whatever

[00:18:44.318]
your topic is.

[00:18:47.568]
And again, this open in the new window. So I need

[00:18:49.729]
to go ahead and close that off to get back to my

[00:18:51.880]
home page.

[00:18:53.588]
Our online resume resume builder is pretty

[00:18:55.818]
substantial as well. Here, I won't go through

[00:18:57.930]
it all today, but just to take a look when I click into

[00:19:00.219]
it here, you

[00:19:02.348]
see, I have a few different options. I can build a resume.

[00:19:04.739]
I could build a cover letter or I could build a website

[00:19:07.009]
as well.

[00:19:08.180]
So I have these three options here and I can create a new

[00:19:10.299]
resume

[00:19:12.489]
when I click that it gives me the option to use something

[00:19:14.769]
I have existing so I can upload it onto the

[00:19:16.838]
platform and add some designing

[00:19:19.068]
to it. change the content.

[00:19:21.709]
I'll be able to do that here.

[00:19:23.920]
I can use some example content that are

[00:19:25.969]
prewritten for different careers and

[00:19:28.009]
different jobs or I could just completely

[00:19:30.199]
start from scratch, which is going to let me choose

[00:19:32.400]
a template and then just fill in all

[00:19:34.449]
of my information.

[00:19:38.750]
And the third option here is going to be our job

[00:19:40.838]
search. I won't go through it today, but it

[00:19:43.338]
works as a standard job search here. Users will be

[00:19:45.380]
able to click it and kind of explore different

[00:19:47.519]
careers that are available to them.

[00:19:49.969]
Then at the very end of this page

[00:19:52.039]
is going to be our school or scholarship

[00:19:54.078]
section. And again, as I mentioned, we have

[00:19:56.160]
both a school and a scholarship search.

[00:19:58.509]
They are pulled out separate here so your users can

[00:20:00.660]
click directly into what they need.

[00:20:03.000]
We also have that financial aid quiz.

[00:20:08.750]
And again, that is listed here in the same formatting.

[00:20:11.309]
I can click into the practice test,

[00:20:19.130]
my continue quiz because I did already start this.

[00:20:21.699]
And you'll see it has that same kind of formatting

[00:20:23.890]
here. So this one is 21

[00:20:26.118]
questions. So it's not a long quiz, but

[00:20:28.219]
it is pretty comprehensive

[00:20:30.640]
and they're really going to be able to explore what

[00:20:32.809]
taking out student loans is going to do

[00:20:35.039]
for them in the future.

[00:20:38.049]
But let's click now into our school

[00:20:40.199]
search tool here.

[00:20:44.880]
So when I click into this, you'll see, I have a few

[00:20:47.098]
different options to run my search or to browse.

[00:20:49.489]
So the very top is just our standard

[00:20:51.979]
search bar.

[00:20:53.150]
And you'll see, I'm filtering right now to only show

[00:20:55.348]
undergraduates schools.

[00:20:58.140]
I can change that on this left hand side here.

[00:21:00.318]
So if I wanna see graduate schools, I can do

[00:21:02.328]
that, you'll see at the very top.

[00:21:04.979]
I clicked into the school search.

[00:21:07.269]
But if I accidentally if I meant

[00:21:09.410]
to click into the scholarship, I can change

[00:21:11.519]
it right here on this page. I don't need to jump back

[00:21:13.789]
to the home page

[00:21:16.459]
done underneath is where you're going to find all of our different

[00:21:18.818]
filters. So if I want to narrow down

[00:21:21.009]
to distance learning, if I'm not planning

[00:21:23.029]
on going on campus, I have

[00:21:25.049]
the option to, to, to toggle that on and

[00:21:27.088]
off and then going further, I

[00:21:29.098]
can choose a location by running a search here.

[00:21:32.430]
I can base it off of an area of study

[00:21:34.699]
program length admission difficulty.

[00:21:37.259]
This one is really beneficial for, you

[00:21:39.489]
know, students who may have struggled through high school

[00:21:42.009]
and they maybe don't have the grades to get them

[00:21:44.019]
into an extremely competitive

[00:21:46.180]
school. Right now. They may want to

[00:21:48.219]
click into these, you know, minimal, minimally

[00:21:50.969]
difficult options to kind of get

[00:21:53.000]
a feel of what they may be able

[00:21:55.259]
to access.

[00:21:57.549]
You see, we have other, a few other filters

[00:21:59.818]
like school size. They can also enter

[00:22:01.979]
in their GPA or their SAT and AC

[00:22:04.098]
T score, to kind of see

[00:22:06.259]
again where they fall with these colleges.

[00:22:08.539]
Even if they're interested in the college, will they be able

[00:22:10.939]
to be accepted with

[00:22:12.949]
their AC T or SAT scores or with their GPA?

[00:22:15.449]
They'll be able to find those here on this page

[00:22:18.640]
and they can click into any of these

[00:22:20.680]
and they can save to my schools which is going

[00:22:22.828]
to save under the my resources section

[00:22:25.529]
or they can just click directly in

[00:22:29.088]
scrolling down here. You'll see again, it gives

[00:22:31.259]
us this nice bit of information about

[00:22:33.279]
how much it costs a year, about how many

[00:22:35.439]
students there are. You'll see, it's a small town

[00:22:37.479]
setting.

[00:22:39.348]
Scrolling down. It even gives like a nice little

[00:22:41.559]
map showing where it's found within Michigan,

[00:22:44.410]
the majors and degrees that are going to be

[00:22:46.420]
available here. Of course, this

[00:22:48.539]
could be pretty extensive depending on the school,

[00:22:51.318]
tuition and fees, student

[00:22:53.469]
body, all that good stuff. So it's really giving them

[00:22:56.039]
a nice overview of the school even

[00:22:58.250]
before they get started. So before they start

[00:23:00.318]
applying, they can use this process

[00:23:02.608]
here to make sure that school they're applying for

[00:23:04.660]
is actually going to fit their

[00:23:06.670]
needs and is actually what they're looking for.

[00:23:14.838]
Ok. Now, that's what I have for you today about

[00:23:16.890]
Peterson's test prep. Since this is a one on one

[00:23:19.118]
session, it's really a pretty basic

[00:23:21.588]
bit of information just to get you

[00:23:23.608]
started with the resource and to get your users

[00:23:25.618]
started. Now, I'm going to go ahead

[00:23:27.890]
and jump back to my slides because I do have some wrap

[00:23:30.078]
up information for you that I want to

[00:23:32.779]
get out before our session is over

[00:23:35.098]
today.

[00:23:35.969]
So if you have any questions about this webinar

[00:23:38.338]
or about other training webinars on our support

[00:23:40.699]
