Pearson pushes major TestNav upgrades twice a year—in summer and in winter. Pearson coordinates a timeline for pushing an upgraded TestNav version with each program, depending on testing sessions. At the coordinated time, the upgrade pushes to your program without any action required. If a student did not sign out of a device, the next student to use the device may need to sign in again to begin testing with the latest version.

In summer (typically in June), an updated version of the TestNav apps comes available. Methods for app updates vary by OS as shown below:
