Am I READI to take an Online Course?

If you are thinking about taking an online course, here’s a way for you to decide if you are ready! Take the READI ASSESSMENT, it only takes 30 minutes to complete. You will discover:

  • your learning style
  • your technical skill level
  • your online reading comprehension
  • your typing speed and accuracy

How do I get started?

Go to NPCC's READI website:

  • http://npcc.readi.info
  • Login and Passwords:

    For Summer Term:

    • Username:  npccsu10
    • Password:  summer2010

    For Fall Term:

    • Username:   npccf10
    • Password:    fall2010


Once you have completed the READI, you will receive your scores by email. Save your scores for your instructor and/or your online advisor to review. If you are taking an online course for the first time or have not completed the ANGEL Orientation previously, you are required to take the READI Assessment as part of the ANGEL Student Orientation.
