what are technical learning profiles (TLPs)? |
| |
|
| |
The Technical Learning Profile (TLP) is a quick and easy way to determine skill levels - both before and after taking classes. The TLP is an objective assessment that asks multiple choice questions based on the skills and tasks of a job profile. For example, if you are completing a TLP for a Solaris System Administrator job profile, you may be asked to identify the file used to restrict root access.
Note: TLPs are currently offered for certain Sun Microsystems Technologies. Contact an educational consultant for other learning profiles with other technologies/partners.
