Blackblot Content Retention Tools

Classroom training is a personal experience and an important source of knowledge and materials, but the learning process is not over once the course is over.

Blackblot’s content retention tools promote post-training content retention and help product managers to further deepen their knowledge. These tools challenge individuals with a series of multiple-choice questions, which are based on PMTK Book chapters that support a specific course in Blackblot’s product management training program. The "Content Retention Tool" (CRT) experience is delivered in a test-like format using a professional test engine.

Blackblot’s content retention tools can also be used to achieve additional goals:

  • Learning Aid - supplements regular studies through interaction.
  • Self Assessment - allows uncovering areas for self improvement.
  • Interview Preparation - builds confidence and serves as a refresher.
  • Certification Study - enables practice and simulated test experience.
