Computer-Based Testing for Basic Skills Test
The ICTS Basic Skills test is offered on computer in addition to the regularly scheduled paper-based test administrations. Computer-based testing (CBT) for the Basic Skills test is available during select five- or six-day testing windows at Pearson Professional Centers nationwide, including at least six in Illinois. Refer to "Test Dates for Computer-Based Testing" for a list of the testing windows currently open for registration and to "Test Sites for Computer-Based Testing" for information about available test centers.
Registration. Registration for computer-based testing is available on the Internet by selecting "Register Now" on the ICTS Web site. There is an additional computer-based testing fee of $84 for testing on computer. The following guidelines apply to computer-based testing registration:
- You should plan to register as early as possible before your desired testing window. Test appointments are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis and seating is limited.
- Once you have registered, you must wait until after you have tested to register again for computer-based testing.
- You must wait 120 days after taking the Basic Skills test on computer before retaking this test on computer.
Test administration. In computer-based testing, examinees complete the test by selecting answers on-screen to multiple-choice questions and typing a response to the writing assignment. See "Reporting to the Test Site for Computer-Based Testing," "What to Bring to the Test Site for Computer-Based Testing," and "Test Site Rules" for details about the day of the test, including information about identification and security policies.
Score reporting. Unofficial test results will be posted on the ICTS Web site and official score reports will be mailed on the score report date for each testing window. See "Test Dates for Computer-Based Testing" for score report dates and "Release of Your Test Scores" for additional information on score reporting.
