Best Practices in Test Management A secondary save location is required. Verify students have all needed Accommodations before preparing the test sessions. Changes in a student’s test details in PearsonAccess Next will NOT modify a test that is already prepared. If a student is experiencing technical issues during testing, remember to communicate that there is a LIVE TESTER when contacting Customer Service.
Operational Reports Operational Reports are different than Published Reports. Operational Reports are generated reports that can be displayed or downloaded to help monitor site activity for your district and schools.
Published Reports Published Reports are ‘point in time reports’. Published reports are generated at a specific point in time. Examples of Published Reports are Student, School and District Score Reports, PreID Summary Reports and Security Checklists. 31
