About the Tests
National Evaluation Series™
The National Evaluation Series™ (the Series) is a nationally available teacher certification testing program. The Series teacher certification tests are comprehensive exams aligned to professionally accepted national learning standards, covering areas such as essential academic skills, reading instruction, and commonly taught elementary, middle, and secondary grade-level subjects.
The Series Early Childhood, Foundations of Reading, and Reading Specialist tests have been adopted by the Connecticut State Department of Education.
