LETRS Volume 1 Unit 1-4 Posttest Answers

A posttest is given at the end of Volume 1 (Units 1-4) and Volume 2 (Units 5-8). The Volume 1 posttest has 45 questions, and the Volume 2 posttest has 40 questions. It is not timed and can be referenced with notes or a manual.

You may take each posttest once and are only allowed to retake it if you scored 80-87% on your posttest while seeking to become a LETRS facilitator (retake allowed only once).

Consider how much knowledge increased between the pretest and posttest in addition to your score.
