   First-Time Access to Test Day Toolkit

   Accessing Test Day Toolkit the first time requires 2-step verification, so do it before test day.

2. Add staff to the administration so they can use Test Day Toolkit on test day.

   • Important: Do this as soon as possible so there’s time to resolve any staff access issues before test day. 
   • Navigate to the Staff page.
   • Add contact details for your proctors and other test day staff.
   • Timesaver: If you’ve used the toolkit before, select returning staff from your staff list.
   • We’ll send access emails to new staff and use the contact details you provide for 2-step verification so make sure their email and phone number are current.
   • As part of 2-step verification, we send staff a code that expires after 3 minutes. Mobile numbers make first-time access easier.

4. Add testing rooms.

   • Navigate to All Rooms. 
   • Give each room a seating capacity and a name.
   • Important: If you’re testing in the same physical room multiple times, you must add a room in Test Day Toolkit for each session to create unique student rosters.
   • If any students have accommodations that require testing over multiple days, add a separate room in Test Day Toolkit for each day of testing, even if you plan to use the same space. Get complete instructions in the Accommodations Guide for Coordinators.
   • To give each room a unique name, add the month and day after the room name. If necessary, add the time, too, using letters and numbers only. For example, create rooms called “Cafeteria Oct 6 AM” and “Cafeteria Oct 6 PM” if you’re using the cafeteria to test one group in the morning and another group in the afternoon.
   • If you intend to print a room directory, remember to use room names that help students locate their room. To protect student privacy, don’t use room names that refer to accommodations.

5. Recommended: Add a late room.

   • If possible, reserve a room for students who arrive at their assigned room after the proctor reads the script.
   • Note: If you preassign students to rooms in Test Day Toolkit, you or your staff will need to reassign late students before they enter a room code.

6. Optional: Assign students to rooms.

   • On the All Students page, filter or sort your roster by testing group.
   • Select multiple students and use the Action dropdown menu to move them to rooms in bulk.
   • The Test Coordinator Manual and the Accommodations Guide for Coordinators have more information about testing groups and room assignments.
   • To test students in different testing groups in the same room, skip this step and simply instruct students to sit in the selected room. The toolkit will create a room roster on test day when students enter the room code their proctor gives them.
   • Tip: After you assign students to rooms, you can export room assignments by navigating to Downloads. 

7. Check room assignments of students approved for small-group testing.

   • Look in the Accommodations column on your roster for students approved for small-group testing.
   • If any student approved for small-group testing is assigned to a room with more than 15 seats, move them to a smaller room.
   • Move each student approved for one-to-one testing to their own room.

8. Assign staff to roles and rooms.

   • Assign 1 proctor to each room.  
   • Only 1 proctor can be assigned to a room, but anyone with access can use Test Day Toolkit to complete proctor activities in any room.
   • Proctors can be assigned to only 1 room at a time per test administration. If someone is proctoring multiple times during the testing window, assign them to a new room after each session.
   • Assign hall and room monitors as needed to meet required staffing ratios.
   • Assign 1 or more technology monitors by selecting Technology coordinator.  
   • Don’t assign technology or hall monitors to a room. 

9. Take care of final details a few days before test day.

   • Check your roster for registration updates.
   • Print student sign-in tickets and add them to your room kits. Find out how.  
   • Make sure testing staff can access Test Day Toolkit.
   • Optional: Go to Downloads > Print Room Directory so students can look up their room assignment. No sensitive student information is shared.
