Labor Relations class
*i will give all sign in info when I feel comfortable/assign the best person
Need someone that is VERY good in labor relations and knows about the laws that pertain to this subject. This exam is via blackboard and is multiple choice. 50 questions – due by monday @ noon. Once started it has to be completed then – can’t go back and finish it later as it is timed. 60 minutes and only allowed one try.
exam over ch. 5-10 – powerpoints over chapters uploaded to see what were studying in each chapter
Also attached is my last exam – yes I bombed it but it will give you an idea of the questions that are asked.
