If you are seeking certification or endorsement for any of the following, you need to take the exam:

• Middle Grades (Grades 5-9)
• Secondary (Grades 6-12)

If you are still uncertain about your eligibility to test, please Contact AEPA for approval to test.

You may be eligible for testing accommodations if you have one or more disability, one or more health conditions, if English is not your primary language, or if you are nursing/breastfeeding.

If you are approved to receive testing accommodations, you may be directed to a specific testing center that can provide you with the environment and support you need.

If you are a nursing mother who needs to bring in specialized equipment or storage materials, be aware that children will not be allowed in the testing center or into the secure testing room. Nursing mothers will not be able to leave the test center once testing has begun, and time taken for breaks is considered part of the available testing time.

If you are visually impaired, braille testing materials will be available, and you will be allowed to have a medical device in the testing room (if needed).

‍To request testing accommodations:

1. Review the Documentation Requirements and collect any necessary documents.
2. Register for the test. Be sure to declare your intent to request alternative testing arrangements during registration. Do NOT schedule your test appointment until you receive notification of resolution.
