We recommend that you follow the steps listed in order to get the most comprehensive look at ACCUPLACER.  \nMany steps reference additional resources to help you explore the topic further. All materials referenced can be found within the Resources menu of the ACCUPLACER platform.  \nStep 1: Log in to the Platform  \nYou will receive a registration confirmation email that includes your username and an account authentication link. The link will direct you to a series of screens that will validate your login credentials.  \nOnce you complete the validation, [go to](go to accuplacer.org)[ accuplacer.org](go to accuplacer.org), enter your username and password, and click on the Login button.  \nStep 2: Take the ACTA Test  \nCollege Board recognizes the importance of Testing Personnel and is committed to boosting this importance within the profession by requiring all testing personnel to be certified. Before you can gain full access to the ACCUPLACER system you must successfully complete the ACCUPLACER Certificate of Administration (ACTA) test. Any user with an Institutional Administrator, Site Manager, Proctor Reporter, and/or Proctor, credentials must take the ACTA test. Access to the ACTA assessments is through your ACCUPLACER account.  \nACTA certification cascades to all other accounts at the same user level within an institution. For example, if a user has multiple proctor accounts for different sites, and they pass the test, all proctor accounts for the user are certified as well.  \nThe ACTA test is open book and training materials are available from the Resources menu.  \nStep 3: Create Sites  \nA Site is a location created under your institution account that allows you to administer tests. These “testing” sites help protect student privacy by permitting only authorized users access to data stored within a particular site. Sites are identified by a unique nine-digit code and can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your campus.  \nFor example, sites can be created to identify a particular campus location, such as the North campus or East campus; identify a specific program (e.g., specific placement testing, summer boot camp); or identify dual-enrollment high schools.  \nFollow the steps below to create your site(s):  \n1. Select the Users menu option.  \n2. Expand the Manage Profiles menu and click Site Profile.  \n3. Click Add to create a test site.  \n4. Enter the name of your new test site, and complete all fields marked with an asterisk.  \n5. Click Save.  \nStep 4: Purchase Test Units  \nACCUPLACER tests are administered using Test Units. You will need to purchase or transfer test units to a Test Site before testing can occur. Purchased units will be loaded to the institution or site identified on the order form. The Institution Administrator (IA) can then transfer units to test sites as needed. Refer to the ACCUPLACER Online Order Form under the Test Units tab, to confirm pricing and unit requirements before test day.  \nYou can allocate units to testing sites by following these steps:  \n1. Log in with IA credentials, and then select the Users menu option.  \n2. After the Users menu expands, click Transfer Test Units.  \n3. Select your “transfer from” and “transfer to” test sites from the pull-down menus.  \n4. Enter the number of units to transfer.  \n5. Click Transfer to complete your transfer.  \nStep 5: Creating Users  \nAccess to various ACCUPLACER features is role based, so once testing sites have been created, users to each site will need to be assigned. User roles are determined by the Institution Administrator (IA), and include Site Manager (SM), Proctor, Proctor Reporter, and other Reporters.  \nFollow the steps below to create your users:  \n1. Log in with your IA credentials, and select the Users menu option.  \n2. After the Users menu expands, click Manage Profiles.  \n3.
