Completing the Technical Readiness checklist

The Technical Readiness tab allows you to: 

  • review all the Administration Checklist items 
  • check the completed items 
  • track your progress 
  • complete the Principal Questionnaire

When both the technical readiness checklist and the school board IT checklist are completed, a green box confirming the test can be administered will be displayed. 

NOTE 
Teachers can administer the test only once these checklists are completed.
