MTB

Theory Courses, Practice & Exams can all be purchased on the Make an Entry page.

On the entry page there is the option to switch between our Instrumental Grades and Music Theory at the top of the page. From here you can then select your Music Theory Course, Practice or Exam and select whether it will be in British or American terminology.

During the entry process you will be asked:  “Who needs access to this course/exam?”

Theory courses/exams are accessed via your MTB exam portal so if you or someone else (such as a family member) will be accessing the exam/course with your MTB login then please select ‘Myself’.

If this course/exam is going to be accessed by someone else not using your login (such as a student) then please select ‘Someone Else’ and provide their email they will receive an email with instructions on how to access their course/exam.

If this person already has an account with MTB please ensure to use the email address already registered to their account. If they don’t have an account this email will be used to create their new MTB account and they will be emailed to complete their sign up.

Purchased Theory Courses, Practice & Exams can all be accessed via your exam portal, the button for which is found at the top of the website.

Once on the Portal on your ‘My Exams’ page you will you will see a list of your purchased Theory products and instrumental exams.  You can filter or search the reference for the product in question and on the right of the purchased Theory product you will see a Green ‘Start’ button, or in the case of an exam a Green ‘Take Exam’ button.  Pressing these will launch your Theory product in the Artusi/MTB platform and you will be able to access your Theory Course, Practice or Exam.

With our Interactive Theory, registered MTB Centres receive free access on their exam portal to any theory course or practice purchased by one of their students.

Just ask your students to put in your centre number during the entry process in the same way as our instrumental grade entries.  (Your centre number can be found on your ‘my account’ page). After the purchase a copy of the Theory course/practice purchased will appear on your centre exam portal as well as your student’s portal.

Centres also have the option to make the entry/purchase the Theory Course/Practice for their student from their account using the someone else feature to assign the Theory to their student.  In this case they will also receive access to the Theory purchased on their account.

Exams are only accessible to the account selected on purchase, if it is linked to a centre then the exam will appear and be recorded on your centre exam portal but there will be no ‘take exam’ button to access the actual exam.

MTB’s Theory Courses & Practice grant access to our interactive software for a single year after purchase.

Theory Exams can only be taken once per purchase and can be taken up to one year from purchase.

MTB’s Theory Courses, Practice & exams contain unlimited randomised questions.  These questions are created using set parameters but are randomly generated each time.

You can create a new set of randomised questions by selecting the start new assignment button on a Course or Practice grade, while you can click on any existing assignment to continue working on the existing set of generated questions.  These existing assignments will not generate new questions when left and accessed again.

Centres receive a copy of Theory materials they are linked to during the entry process, these are a copy and provide an idea of the structure of the Course/Practice.  However the randomised questions will be different for the teacher and student as questions are randomly created for each individual user/assignment created. Centres who wish to see their students exact questions should access their students version of the Course/Practice in the lesson.

While completing MTB Theory Courses or Practice you will see a progress bar at the bottom of the page for answered questions.  You will also be able to see the % of correct/incorrect questions next to the assignment on the landing page of the Theory Course/Practice that you go to from the MTB homepage.

Only the specific user can see this progress, although teachers/centres can access a copy of the Theory Course/Practice they do not see the progress of specific students unless they log in to the students portal to access the Course/Practice during the lesson.
