Testing Information

Testing Information on Case Details is used to capture testing and assessment information relevant to the job seeker's job search and placement activity. Testing Information on Case Details is designed to capture testing and assessment information to support multi-partner services without duplication of testing and assessment services. Three types of tests can be entered: Proficiency, Aptitude/Achievement, and Other. For Proficiency and Aptitude/Achievement, the specific test types display in a drop-down and may vary by state.

AJL also includes specific pages to capture WorkKeys assessment results. (May vary by state.) Go to Case Details, and from the job seeker context menu, select WorkKeys Scores for another option for recording results for the following: Applied Math, Applied Technology, Listening, Locating Information, Reading for Information, and Writing.

Do NOT use Testing Information on Case Details to document enrollment-specific testing and assessment, especially for Out-of-School Youth testing. AJL is designed to capture and report numeracy/literacy gains from specific entries on the Enrollment Details page for Out-of-School Youth testing. If entered on Case Details, the gains will not be reported.
