As part of RO, you will need to work through an online study skills module
and complete a multiple choice test based on what you have learned. This
will help you to develop valuable skills to use now and later at university.
What is skills4uni?
Skills4uni is an online module to help you
develop the study skills necessary to be
successful at school/college and at university.
The module includes interactive quizzes,
videos, tasks and information from current
university students.
You should start working through the skills4uni
module after you have attended the Local
Launch event. Your ementor will check how
you are getting on with the module once
ementoring begins but you should also keep
them up to date with how you are getting on.
When you have completed the module, let
your ementor know and they will set you a
multiple choice test.

• Work through sections 1-6 of the online
module (section 7 is optional).
• Complete the interactive quizzes and tasks.
• Take notes and make sure you understand
what you are learning.
• Take the skills4uni multiple choice test
through the ementoring portal.
The multiple choice test
Once you have completed sections 1-6 of the
online module let your ementor know and they
will set a multiple choice test for you to take.
The test involves 36 multiple choice questions
relating to what you have learned in sections
1-6 of the skills4uni module. You must achieve
a score of 75% or above to pass the test.
How will it help you?
