Module 1: Getting Started

Welcome to the first module of your ALX Grader Training: Getting Started. In this module, you will gain a foundational understanding of your role, the key timelines to follow, and what is expected of you as a grader in the Pathway Program. This module sets the stage for everything that follows, giving you the context and tools you need to evaluate learner submissions effectively. 

Here's what you'll be exploring in this module: 

• Introduction: This lesson will give you an overview of the training, explaining why it's important and what you will cover throughout the training.

• Assessment Evaluation Timeline: Learn about the timeline you will be working with, including important deadlines for learners, grading windows, and how your work fits into the overall assessment schedule. 

• Expectations from Graders: Understand the different types of assessments that learners will submit, and what is expected from you when evaluating each type. This includes the key details you need to be aware of for each type of submission. 

Take your time going through each lesson in this module, as it will set the foundation for the rest of your journey. To ensure you've grasped the core ideas, you'll complete a brief self-assessment at the end of the module. This will help reinforce your learning and prepare you for the next steps in the training. We are excited to support you on your path to becoming an effective and impactful ALX grader.
