Certification Matters

Studies show that professionals obtaining digital skills and software certifications can:

• advance their careers
• make more money
• market a recognized level of competency

For students, certification results can provide evidence they possess the digital skills required for many of today’s jobs.

We Can Put Your Students on a Path to Certification

We have partnered with Isograd^™, an internationally-recognized assessment and certification provider of Microsoft application skills. Together, we offer your students a cost-effective and accessible means to the internationally-recognized TOSA^® (Test on Software Applications) certification.

TOSA is the only standard to assess and certify desktop proficiency with a score that measures proficiency levels from beginner to expert.

TOSA certifications are adaptive and quantify exactly what a student knows. Instead of simple pass or fail exams, TOSA provides a ranking level and a score from 1 to 1,000 to clearly identify the student’s true level of proficiency.

Cirrus and TOSA Work Together

Using these two side-by-side, students access real-world opportunities to build and test their word processing skills though live-in-the-application exercises, projects, and assessments.

Unlike with simulations, Cirrus and TOSA pre- and post- assessments offer students a unique integrated learning solution, helping them develop skills mastery and preparing them for certification.
