The first Cummins Engines course has a GATE test in the second week of the course. Passing the GATE is measured by scoring a 90% or above on each of the three lab tests and 84% or above on the BETT written test. Students who do not achieve the minimum requirements will have failed and be required to repeat the course in order to continue in the Cummins Engines program. Students who fail the GATE will not be allowed to take any further post‑tests in that respective Cummins course without a complete course retake. In order to be eligible for the Cummins engine program students must have a 3.0 GPA or better.
Having received the initial BETT and Insite credentials, a student must achieve an 84% in classroom and 90% lab evaluations on each credential that follows in order to receive that credential.
In addition, students may not exceed 18 hours of missed time in the full 12‑week course to be eligible for earning credentials. However, a student may continue the remaining Cummins Engines courses (CMNS‑002, CMNS‑003, CMNS‑004) and not earn credentials by meeting UTI grading standards of 70% or greater. In order to be considered a Cummins Engine graduate by Cummins and receive the related qualifications, students must meet the education objectives of an 84% minimum on written tests and a 90% minimum on lab tests.
Upon completion of the Cummins Engine program, a student may be classified as either a program graduate or a program completed student.
