Introduction

This manual is your guide to preparing for and administering the online CLT and CLT10. Administrators and proctors must adhere to the guidelines in this manual so that exams are administered uniformly at every test site.

**Please follow the proctor script carefully. Failure to comply with the administration guidelines of CLT may result in students' test scores being voided or withheld.

Announcements & Updates (Updated 20250407)

• Section Access Codes

  • The In-school CLT now includes separate section access codes between each section of the test. This change applies only to the in-school CLT. This change does not apply to the CLT10.
  • The section access codes will be emailed to the test manager in the email including the regular test access code.
    • These codes will be sent in emails communicated on the Monday closest to the week before the test as well as on the day before the test.
      • These access codes will be referred to throughout our documentation and communication as:
        • Test Access Code: to start the test
        • Section 2 Code: to enter section 2
        • Section 3 Code: to enter section 3

• Text-to-Speech (TTS)

  • The test platform now has a built-in TTS tool. There will be a blue banner across the top of the exam that tells the student to highlight any text or math for it to be read aloud. This will automatically appear only on the sections for which the student has been approved to use TTS. The student’s test must be taken from the same account (email) under which they were approved for accommodations.

• Test Administration In-Progress View for Test Managers

  • We have released a new administrator dashboard feature, which is an in-progress dashboard view that enables the test manager to track the submission status for their test-takers.
  • Test managers may now see which of their testing cohorts are still in-progress during the test as well as those who have submitted.
  • Via this update, test managers may now more easily deactivate student registrations as needed.
  • Registered students that are absent from test day must be deactivated.
  • Students still showing ‘in-progress’ on the dashboard after they have been instructed to ‘hit submit’ must be deactivated. Subsequently, an anomaly report must be submitted by the proctor or test manager.
  • How do I deactivate a registration? Underneath “Reg Status”, there is a green checkmark. One mouse-click on this icon will turn it into a red ‘X’, demonstrating a successful deactivation.

  

• What other kinds of things require an anomaly report? Many administrators have asked for clarity regarding anomaly reporting criteria. Overall, CLT requires all administrators and proctors to track, prevent, and report the following:

  • General Anomalies - Anything that affected timing or completion of the exam for more than one student in a testing room. Examples include power outage, widespread internet issues, inclement weather, etc.
  • Individual Anomalies - Anything that affected an individual student’s test. This includes illnesses, rules violations, tech issues, etc.
    • Administrators and proctors should also deactivate student registrations for those with individual anomalies.

Administrator Info, Registration, and Deadlines

Communication and CLT School Administrator Accounts

Schools must identify an individual to serve as the CLT point of contact. This person will receive all test-related communications and may forward that communication to other school administrators as desired.

Reminders about deadlines and preparing for test-day are emailed regularly to a school’s point of contact in the weeks leading up to an exam. Administrators will begin receiving these emails and preparing for the test about eight weeks before a test.

Multiple school administrators and proctors may request a CLT School Administrator account. Anyone with a CLT School Administrator account is able to register for tests, upload a student roster, and view scores and analytics. Please email [email protected] to request an account.

Importing Student Rosters

Instructions for importing your student roster can be found here. These instructions and reminders will also be sent to your school’s point of contact in the weeks leading up to the test.
