Subject: Upcoming updates to Peterson's Test and Career Prep and Peterson's Career Prep - 7/31

Good morning!


At the end of July,   Peterson's Test and Career Prep and Peterson's Career Prep will have a new look and feel. The platform will be easier to use as well as support more-diverse learning styles. These changes will not impact current accounts or links. Training opportunities will be schedule in August/September.



GREATER ACCESS TO VALUABLE TOOLS

Peterson's Test and Career Prep<https://www.galesupport.com/telGeo/geo.php?db=PTCP&loc=tel_s_tsla> and Peterson's Career Prep<https://www.galesupport.com/telGeo/geo.php?loc=tel_s_tsla&db=PCPR> will now support Spanish language learners by adding the ability to translate the site into Spanish. Over the next year, the resource will roll out Spanish language content, specifically focusing on test content.



To support easier reading, the new platform will include increased contrast.

EASIER NAVIGATION

The enhanced experience allows users to find what they're looking for more quickly. The search experience will include search assist, so users will be able to better find what they're looking for¯especially when navigating all the acronyms that tests have.

There will also be improvements to make it easier to save content. Instead of just saving tests, users will also be able to save schools, internships, and courses, so they can find what they're looking for and come back to it quickly.

EXPANDED CONTENT

Peterson's will continue adding more video/interactive content to our courses every quarter, so students can remain engaged while preparing for tests or getting ready to enter the workforce.
E-resources - ever evolving! Please let know if you have any questions or comments.

Thanks,
Andrea
