List of Accommodations

Which accommodations are available to be assigned to a student are based on:

  • Accommodations enabled as part of implementation configurations. 
  • If alternate accommodated forms are available for the test (e.g., a Spanish version).
  • Which accommodation profile the test is tagged to (for example, some subjects may make TTS available too all students in which case there is no need to assign an accommodation versus others in which only specific students can be assigned). 
  • User permissions – some accommodations may be set up to only be available to some user roles.
