ESD CONTROL FOR<br />
MATERIAL HANDLERS<br />
TRAINING CERTIFICATION TEST (DVD-77C) v.3<br />
This test consists of twenty multiple-choice / true-false questions. All questions are from<br />
the video: ESD Control for Material Handlers (DVD-77C).<br />
Each multiple-choice question has only one most correct answer. Circle the letter<br />
corresponding to your selection for each test item. When there is a true-false question,<br />
circle true or false. If you wish to change an answer, erase your choice completely.<br />
You should read through the questions and answer those you are sure of first. After your<br />
first pass through the test, then go back and answer the questions that you were not sure<br />
of. If two answers appear to be correct, pick the answer that seems to be the most correct<br />
response.<br />
When you are finished, check to make sure you have answered all of the questions. Turn<br />
in the test materials to the instructor.<br />
The passing grade for this test is 70% (14 correct answers or better).<br />
Good luck!<br />
