Computer Literacy & Internet Knowledge Test

The Computer Literacy and Internet Knowledge Test (CLIK) is an assessment of basic computer skills. It measures a person’s proficiency with using Internet browsers and common desktop applications, such as email, chat and word processing programs.

The test consists of three 3-minute task-oriented simulations, followed by ten multiple choice questions covering knowledge of internet browsers, basic cybersecurity, calendars and universal operating system features. Since it is designed as a test of the kind of basic computer literacy that is required in many work environments, it can be used for any position which requires basic computer skills, such as receptionists, customer service representatives, medical billers, data entry clerks, administrative assistants, and more.

The CLIK test has been extensively validated for a wide range of positions that require basic computer knowledge. The test is highly correlated with job performance in such roles. Individual results on the CLIK have also been demonstrated to be highly reliable and consistent.

Ideal for a range of roles that require basic computer skills such as receptionists, customer service representatives, medical billers, data entry clerks, administrative assistants, and more.

We have been using the Computer Literacy & Internet Knowledge Test Suite from Criteria for many years and we are pleased with the results, as are our clients.
