Instructions for Faculty

Evaluating Sources was designed to help reinforce the concepts of choosing credible and reliable sources. After completing the training, students receive a certificate of completion. If you choose to make this required training for your students, students who have completed the course should be able to supply you with an electronic copy of their certificate of completion.

On October 1, 2024, the old Evaluating Sources course was replaced with a new and improved version. This change is being implemented to provide students with an enhanced learning experience and to align with the latest educational standards and requirements. Please note that this replacement affects all students, including those who have already completed the existing course. All students who took the old version prior to October 1 and did not save their certificates will be required to complete the new course, which provides them with an opportunity to learn and grow.
