Certification Prep exams

by Tony R. Kuphaldt (2006)

These are multiple-choice exams written in the same style as popular certification
exams, designed to cover most of what a typical two-year program in Instrumentation
would teach. Admittedly, these ``certification prep'' exams are not as rigorous as typical
exams given in the Instrumentation program, but they are good practice for employment
entrance exams and industry-recognized certification exams, which sadly tend to focus
more on rote memorization and recognition rather than actual problem-solving skill. I no
longer give this exam as practice to my students, and so the answers to all questions are
provided on the last several pages of each exam so that you may check your own
performance:
