STEP 2:
PASS THE CRICUT QUIZ
Our Cricut quiz is a ten-question test that measures your understanding of the training material. You'll need to get 100% to become certified, but don't worry if you don't pass on your first try. You can take the quiz as many times as you need to, and you'll have an opportunity to see the correct answers for any questions you missed. We want to make sure that you have a solid understanding and can operate the equipment safely and effectively.
