The holder of a SL Certification has demostrated compency in basic SL User Interface, SL Permissions
This certification exams consisted objective type questions such as true/false or multiple choice questions and simulated labs for examining a candidate's expertise. For this reason, it is essential that those aspiring for SL Scripting certification have sufficient hands-on experience. The majority of questions will require the writing of scripts.

Test Scoring
Proposal A
This complex scoring system allows for sections to be tailored so that less important sections have less impact on the score without upsetting the balance of points.
- Each section is scored seperately.
- Each question will be worth some number of points.
- Each section would have a set number of points that could count towards the total.
- A hypothetical section may contain 20 points worth of questions only 15 would be counted.
- This would allow for the user to get a certain number of questions wrong in a section without it effecting the score.
- The section scores would be totaled and then a pass/fail would be determined based on some set number of points that could be missed.
- The total section usable points may add up to something like 200 but the user would only need something like 190 to pass.
