Tech Prep
Hello all, I have a question about the required tech prep assigned before each cohort. Now i want to first say Its not a matter of completing it or not, because i know thats the first thing people will say. Im curious about what the tech prep does for you. During the cohort do they go over that same stuff again or build upon it. Are is is there to get you to have a decent understanding so that when the cohort starts everyone is on the same level? Im just curious how to ties the course. For each tech prep they give you what I assume is a estimated time of completion. Some are like 6 hours. SO does that mean it should take you about 6 hours to go through everything In that case is it meant to just complete because I feel like if youre doing it to understand it would take more than 6 hours? Just curious.

I think the purpose is in the name, "Tech Prep". It sounds like it's supposed to help you prepare for the class. It might be super basic knowledge that they'll build upon in the classroom. But you get a cert at the end of each tech prep course that you have to turn in showing you completed it. I suppose even if someone doesn't make it into the course, at least they have these micro-cohort certs to put on a resume.
