Free Beginner test-out

Already know the basics? Show what you know.

Pass this scenario-based skills check to skip the $19 Beginner course and qualify to buy Tech Savvy for $49. Complete Tech Savvy to qualify for Super User at $15/month.

The risk check measures your habits; this separate quiz checks Beginner knowledge. It is not a certification, device scan or guarantee of practical skill.

How it works

Answer 14 questions covering accounts, MFA, device protection, browsing, scams, backups and recovery. Pass with at least 12 correct. You have up to three submitted attempts in a rolling 24 hours. A verified account is required to save your qualification.

Passing waives the Beginner prerequisite only. It does not purchase Beginner, mark its lessons complete, or grant access to paid material. Passing does not discount Tech Savvy or membership.
