Before students can begin a class it needs to be set up properly and this can typically mean a lot of change, headaches, and extra time.
We have heard plenty of stories about working with other vendors, especially with LMS integration, but TestOut is a different kind of publisher. To help instructors we have added a team of professionals to make the entire transition as smooth as possible setting everyone for quick success
