SUBCOURSE ORGANIZATION. This subcourse is organized into this single

booklet containing materials needed to complete the subcourse. If additional materials are
needed, they are indicated on the booklet cover. This subcourse booklet consists of lessons
and an examination. Each lesson consists of a lesson assignment, contents pages, lesson
text, and self-grading lesson exercises.

6.

LESSON TESTS. Each lesson in this subcourse is designed for self-evaluation.
This is done through the self-grading exercises which you must work after studying each
lesson text. You will find instructions for completing the exercises in each lesson. Because
you complete the lesson tests and verify your own work, you do not submit your answers for
grading. This is what is meant by the self-evaluation characteristic of this subcourse's
lessons. You will receive credit for the total hours of this subcourse upon successful
completion of the examination.

7.
TESTS AND EXAMINATIONS. Each subcourse has an examination booklet

bound together with the subcourse booklet. ONLY THE EXAMINATION RESPONSE SHEET IS SUBMITTED FOR GRADING. To indicate your examination responses, circle your answer to each question in the examination booklet and retain this until you have received your results.

8.
PREPARING YOUR EXAMINATION RESPONSE SHEET.

Description of the response sheet. The US Army Training Support Center
