Paraprofessional Assesment Test for Instructional Assistants
I understand there is a test or an assesment out there somwhere that an instructional assistant can take to see if they are qualified to be an assistant in a Title I School or Program. If you have an address or phone number for this information I would really appreciate it. Is there a study guide for this test?

Competency test
Portfolios are a great way to
Portfolios are a great way to go as they honor paraeducators training and experience versus taking a
test such as the ParaPro. Utah and a number of other states have portfolio assessment tied to their
Standards and knowledge & skill competencies. You can look at it to give you an idea of how
it works and what the requirements or Lines of Evidence are in Utah. The website is: http://utahparas.org/
Just click on porfolio and related links for more information. let me know if you have additional questions.

Hello, The test you are
Hello,
The test you are taking in Washington is tied directly to Washington's State Standards. In other states they either have a state-specific test or many are signing up to take the PARAPRO Assessment by Educational Testing Services (ETS). You have to sign up for that particular test online at . Some districts/states are paying for the test but others are not.
It is important to inquire within your state or district to determine what assessment they are recommending.

To find information about where you can take the Para Pro by Educational Testing Services (ETS) you need to go to the ETS website. See below.

Copy and paste the address above into your browser and it will take you to the ETS parapro website. There is a "Frequently Asked Question" section that should answer many of your questions.
The fee for the test is $45.00 and you sign up to take it at a location close to you in Florida. It contains 90 questions and requires approximately 2 1/2 hrs to complete.
If you have other questions, just e-mail me directly at marilyn@nrcpara.org.

In California you have to
In California you have to have a BA or BS degree and pass the CBEST test in order to sub as a teacher. Hopes this helps.. Every state may have different requirements so check it out.
National passing score vs state by state score preferences?
I am currently researching the requirements for paraprofessionals and it appears that each state may choose an acceptable score. Educational Testing Services is the provider of the text. Perhaps experience of at least 3 or 5 years in one state would supercede the need to match the new state's cutoff score in the event you did not meet it?

Para test
I plan to take the parapro test this summer 2008. Can you direct me to a study guide for Georgia? Do you have any suggestions for someone currently studing for the test. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Pete, You didn't indicate
Pete,
You didn't indicate where you moved to....So, before you take a test check with your state office of education or your district Title 1 director to determine if you need to take a test and if so, which one has been approved for your state. Many states have selected the ParaPro by ETS but some states have selected other tests, created their own assessment measure or developed portfolios as an assessment option. Check to make sure your efforts and your time are not wasted. Your district can typically give you directions on how to register and take the necessary test.
I am assuming you want to work in a Title 1 school or have been working in a Title 1 school. It wasn't clear in your post.
Hope this helps.
