I now work for an elementary school and have been working for about 13 years as an computer lab aide. I have a BS/BA and would like to know if I need to get certification in technology before I can get a rise. I do not want to become a certified teacher because I like want I do now. I like working with children and not have to go through all of the other things teachers have to go though. I would like more money for what I do.

I live in georgia and am taking the test Aug 4 any ideas on study guides?

Does any know if there is a test that can be taken here in Texas and what are the requirements for taking the test?

Hi, I have a number for ordering the para pro study guide. The guide is published by ETS the same company doing the test. The only thing is the guide will not be available till end of Febuary. The phone number is 1-800-537-3161. They are open from 8 am to 7 pm. The guide is $25.00. Good luck on the test. Do you know of anyone who has taken it yet? If you ever hear how it is maybe you could post about it. Thanks

Good Afternoon Maria, Thank you for the information. I will call and order a guide. As of now I do not know of anyone who has taken the test. If I hear I will post. Thanks again, Patty

What state do you all come from. I'm in So. Florida and there is talk of a Para Pro Test by 2005. I took a Teacher Assistant certification course last summer before I new about all this. Paid $800+. Now find out it was possibly wasted. Judie :?

Has anybody in florida taken the teacher assistnat test yet? I have heard that there is one, but can't find out about it. I live in Brevard County, and would very much like to take it. Thank you, Paula :?:

We are implementing a parapro competency test here in WA, we were told that our test will be 90 multiple choice questions and take an average of 2 hrs. to complete. We are also able to make a portfolio, that proves our competency, but have not seen a rubric or sample as of yet, has anyone out there seen anything that might help with that?
