LPI102 Sample Questionnaire

The following is a sample of questions similar to those covered in the LPI102 training course exam.
We have collated those questions to assist you in determining which LPI course is suitable for your
current level of knowledge.
♦ If you find the questions below difficult, or impossible to answer, the LPI102 should be the
right training course for you.
♦ If you are able to answer the questions, we recommend that you book the course that takes you
to the next level (LPI201), or test your knowledge on the LPI201 sample questionnaire.
♦ If you would like further advice on what training is suitable for you, please don’t hesitate to
