Working on the PFO Program Over the Summer

Welcome to the end of this semester

Because you are enrolled as SAIT students, you have one year to complete this course.

This means that you can work over the summer on it and I will update your marks at school accordingly.

SAIT Re-Test Policy

Welcome to the word of post secondary tests.

They are difficult, as some of you found out today.

Here is the policy for completing the first quiz again:


  • If you got greater than 50%, your mark is your mark. Congrats, you can move on to the next modules.
  • If you scored between 45 and 49%, you may retake the quiz on Wednesday.
  • If you scored less than 45%, you may have your knowledge tests reset and you will need to complete them again, using your notes, before you may retake the quiz. You should do this over Spring Break to get caught up.
We will speak tomorrow about some more advanced ways to commit things to memory.
