  • Assessment Materials & Training

    How do I gain access to view and/or download W-APT screener materials?

    Your W-APT username and password are required (this is a district-wide login, not your personal ACCESS training login). If you don't know your district's W-APT username and password, please contact your Complex Area ELL Administrator or Resource Teacher.

    How do I set up my account for the ACCESS for ELLs Test Administrator Training Course?

    Using your W-APT User Name and Password, create a test administrator training course account using the Account Creator. Afterwards, you should receive an enrollment email with your username and password. If you don't see this message, please check your spam and bulk mail folders.

    Am I required to take the test administrator training quizzes to become approved to administer the ACCESS test?

    Yes. Log In to take the test administrator training quizzes. You must receive a passing score of 80% on all applicable quizzes.

    Do I need to retake the training quizzes if I passed them in a previous year?

    Yes. A review of the training course is essential, particularly the speaking test portion. Log In to take the quizzes.

    Do I need to show proof of my passing quiz grades (80%) from previous years?

    Yes. You should keep a copy on file. Your Complex Area ELL Administrator or Resource Teacher will also maintain a file of course certificates.
