SAM XP (Skills Assessment Manager) enables instructors to gain a true understanding of their studentsÆ proficiency in Office XP skills and helps them prepare for taking MOUS certification exams. This unique performance-based testing software uses realistic, powerful simulations that perform like the actual Word, Excel, Access, and PowerPoint 2002 applications without the need for preinstalled Office software. SAM XP is the most powerful testing and reporting tool available. When SAM XP is used along with the TOM training software and a Course Technology textbook, it completes an integrated testing and training solution that super-charges your Office XP curriculum.
