PC Matic University
PC Matic University (PCMU) has been in development for over a year now. The quizzes, videos, and tutorials are meant to give you a better understanding of how your computer runs. We also show you how PC Matic protects and optimizes your device.
All of this is free to you. Cybersecurity is our number one concern at PC Matic. PCMU is aimed at making sure we keep you educated on the tools you’re using.
Below you can find a link to our basic computer safety test. It’ll test your knowledge on computer safety. Afterwards, the test breaks down any answers you may have missed. There’s also a link to the PCMU video library to offer you additional resources.
Check back frequently for more PCMU content as it’s delivered to you. And, as always, stay safe out there.

I work with my clients both remotely and over the phone. I am a PC Matic MSP. If a client has a question they email or text me and I respond accordingly. If any one needs to talk to someone, please drop me an email at [email protected] and we can arrange a call.
This was my first PCMU attempt on “what is an email”. Very succinct. Presenter’s diction was great and his explanation of various components was layman understandable. James was very knowledgeable. I took the test on email course and got 100. Hurray for me. I did not know about this PCMU but will do my best to access other free courses to learn more. I’m especially concerned about safety and security on various devices. I used to be able to run PCMatic testing but haven’t been able to do that for a while. I just trust that your product will do its job and keep my computer protected from all invasions. I’m old school and miss not being able to talk to someone live. I received a couple of emails to get PCMatic for LIfe but never acted on it because I didn’t know what to do and don’t know what questions to ask in the Chat with PCMatic rep section. Is there anyone who can help me on these 2 issues–talking with someone on phone and seeing if I could get PCMatic for life and how that would work if I get new computer, etc.
I bought a new HP laptop just over a year ago. I’m in Florida now but tried getting PCMatic in this new machine was very confusing since I already had full membership to PCMatic. Never did get it on my new machine. I’d like to scan it but guess not
Why not just ‘close the browser’? In whatever way one might chose. By the time you get that message pops up anything bad that might happen has already happened so it doesn’t matter how one closes the browser.
We love PC Matic for our computer. We did have 4 but not anymore. It is great protection.
I am smarter than I thought. I got 100% on my first and only try. With that said I will not let it go to my head, just remember to practice what I know all the time.
I though Alt-F4 (or CMD-H on an iMachine) was the quickest way to close a browser.
I missed the one about scan frequency. I chose every hour instead of once a week. If you had once a day I would have picked that. I guess I am paranoid about the onslaught of malware, spyware, and ransomware.
Hi Rick,
Remember that scans are in addition to the protection you’re enjoying every day.
Tried to take the test, but the question box, as well as all the answer boxes were blank!?!?
same with us.
I thought i knew all the answers, but i did learn something also. I loved doing the test and want more of those.
