The CBEST is designed to test basic reading, mathematics, and writing skills found to be important for the job of an educator; the test is not designed to measure the ability to teach those skills. This is a stand-alone Java program (1.07 MB) that must be downloaded to the computer on which it will be used. The practice test may be taken by more than one person on the same computer without downloading additional copies of the software. This test requirement in no way replaces any of the other requirements of subject matter knowledge, professional preparation, and practice teaching or field experience used in the issuance of credentials. |
