It wasn't on my 2026 bingo card to add "App Developer" to my resume. But then Canvas crashed, and with that, we lost one of the most robust features of our CSCS Accelerator Course, one that I had put HUNDREDS of hours into curating. The Canvas Quiz platform was robust enough to handle question and answer randomization, immediate vs delayed feedback, multiple question banks, and many other useful learning features. And as hard as I've tried, I haven't found a better platform for our CSCS practice quizzes and practice exams. So I built my own. And CSCS Accelerator Course members get access to it. TODAY. Look for an email with the heading "Welcome to the CSCS Accelerator Quiz App." It contains a link that expires within 24 hours (Why does it expire? Because I couldn't figure out how to change that setting. If you miss it, just let me know). Once you sign up, start your practice! And please know that this is a web-based, beta version of the app. There are still features I'm working on, some formatting issues, and possibly some user interface issues. But by and large, it's ready to rock. If you are interested in joining the next cohort of the CSCS Accelerator Course before it fills up, you can find all the details here: https://www.drjacobgoodin.com/ The live sessions kick off August 3rd, but once you sign up you'll gain immediate access to the course, as well as the Accelerator Quiz App ahead of public release.

You can now set your daily question goal and watch as the green bars stack up while you put in the reps. Reminder: The CSCS Accelerator Quiz App is in beta. Thank you for those who are reporting bugs to me—it's very helpful! Reminder #2: Early access to the next cohort is open to all community members.
