This will take you to the course home page.  From your course homepage, select the first lesson listed (i.e. Lesson One). A new screen will load containing the first slide of the training content. The audio and animation will play automatically. When the slide is done the “Select the ‘Next’ button to proceed” icon will appear in the lower right corner of the slide. If you wish to replay the audio and animation, select the “Replay” button in the lower right corner. To visit the previous slide, select the “Previous” button, and to proceed to the next slide, select the “Next” button. back to top
 
     
  What is the difference between a course, lesson, part and lesson topics?
Courses may be broken up into different lessons. Each lesson may include several parts. These parts will include the lesson content, a lesson summary, and at least one review exercise. These parts are indicated on your lesson tool bar. Most lessons require you to finish each part before it can be considered complete. The lesson content is made up of the lesson topics, the content page, and navigation buttons. Please refer to our Cheat Sheet for further assistance. back to top
 
     
  What is a slide/content page?
A slide, also known as a content page, contains the training material in the lesson content. Please refer to our Cheat Sheet for further assistance. back to top
 
     
  Do I have to take the lessons in order?
Each course is different. Most courses require the lessons to be taken in the order they are listed. However, some courses will give you the option to select a specific lesson. Once a lesson is complete, you may go back to it at any time. To learn what your course options are, please refer to the Requirements tab on your course home page. back to top
 
     
  What is considered a passing score on the review exercises?
Most courses require at least at 60% or better on a review exercise to pass. For more information, your score requirements can be found under the Requirements tab on your course homepage. back to top
 
     
  What if I do not pass the review exercise?
After submitting a review exercise, the results will automatically show, including the score and any incorrect answers. If any answers are incorrect, the correct answer will be indicated below the question, as well as information indicating where in the lesson it was discussed. It is recommended that you go back through the training and review each incorrect answer in the lesson before taking the test again. Most courses will allow you two chances to pass the review exercise. back to top
 
     
  How long does a course take?
The length of a course depends on the level of training involved and the students, themselves. Please refer the course catalog to view the approximate time to take a certain course. The approximation is based on an average of the time it has taken to complete the course per student. back to top
 
     
  Are the courses self-paced?
Yes. All of Rushing Marine’s online training courses are available 24 hours a day. You may work at your own pace through all of the material in the course. However, most courses expire 30 days from the day of enrollment.  You must complete the course before it expires. back to top
 
     
  Can I stop in the middle of a lesson?
You may complete the course at one time, or stop in between lessons. You may stop in the middle of a lesson, however, it is recommended to complete the lesson before stopping. If you stop in the middle of a lesson, the training will not automatically begin at the topic where you left off when you restart the training. To proceed to the topic where you left off, you may select that topic’s link from the list in the upper right corner of the lesson content. back to top
 
     
  What if I have a question about the training during the course?
If you have any questions or comments, you may contact the course instructor by selecting the Messages link under the Communication Tab. The course instructor will contact you via e-mail usually within a few minutes up to 24 hours between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m, with the exception of weekends and holidays. back to top

  What happens if I don’t finish my course before my enrollment expires?  If you do not finish your course before your enrollment expires, you must purchase the course again to complete it. Your course home page will indicate how many days you have remaining to finish the course under the Requirements tab. We apologize for any inconvenience, but we cannot make exceptions to this rule. back to top  
     
  What is a Certificate of Completion? A Certificate of Completion is awarded when a learner meets all course requirements. It will indicate the learner’s name, the course completed and the date of completion. Your supervisor may request a copy of this certificate for recordkeeping purposes. If so, it is important to access it and your Score Report before your enrollment expires. After your enrollment expires you will not be allowed to access the course, the Certificate of Completion or your Score Report. Rushing Marine will not be able to retrieve this information after your enrollment has expired. back to top  
     
  How do I print my certificate? When you have successfully completed all requirements for a course, you will be given the option to view and print your Certificate of Completion. To print it at a later date, it can be accessed on the course homepage, under the Requirements tab, at any time before your enrollment expires. When printing your certificate select the file menu at the top left of your screen, and then select the print option. Please note, in order for your Certificate of Completion to print properly you should change your printer settings to print in landscape.
