and approved private schools for students with disabilities (APSSDs), particularly District Test Coordinators (DTCs) and School Test Coordinators (STCs), in preparing for the upcoming WIDA ACCESS language proficiency (ELP) assessment administration .  \n▪ Communicate basic information about the WIDA ACCESS assessments, includingthe roles, responsibilities, and requirements of all staff involved in WIDA ACCESS administration .  \n• Guidelines:  \n▪ Please review this presentation and turnkey the information with all appropriate staff in your district and ensure that all required tasks are completed.  \n▪ For the purposes of this presentation, ACCESS refers to WIDA ACCESS Online, WIDA ACCESS Paper, WIDA ACCESS for Kindergarten, and WIDA Alternate ACCESS unless specifically noted.  \nNote: The term multilingual learner is synonymous with “English learner” or “English language learner.” Sources which are cited from the United States Department of Education may still reference the use of the term English learner or EL. The NJDOE recognizes that multilingual learners may enter New Jersey’s schools with a level of proficiency in a world language other than English. The NJDOE will use “Multilingual Learner” and “ML,” respectively, to shift to asset-based language and honor a student’s primary language.  \n [nj.gov](nj.gov/education)[/education](nj.gov/education) 2  \nTable of Contents  \n\n| Topic | Found on Slide(s) |\n| --- | --- |\n| WIDA ACCESS Assessments Information | Slides 4 to 8 |\n| WIDA ACCESS Roles and Responsibilities | Slides 9 to 16 |\n| Student Data Responsibilities for ACCESS | Slides 17 to 22 |\n| Test Coordinator Training | Slides 23 to 25 |\n| WIDA ACCESS Materials Ordering | Slides 26 to 30 |\n| Test Administrator Requirements and Training/Certification | Slides 31 to 36 |\n| Additional Administration Considerations for ACCESS | Slides 37 to 44 |\n| Test Security | Slides 45 to 49 |\n| Materials Management | Slides 50 to 55 |\n| Materials Return | Slides 56 to 61 |\n| Security Breaches | Slides 62 to 68 |\n| Document Retention | Slides 69 to 70 |\n| WIDA ACCESS Resources | Slides 71 to 78 |\n| Additional Information | Slides 79 to 86 |\n| Updates for the 2025-2026 ACCESS and WIDA Alternate ACCESS Administration | Slides 87 to 91 |\n| Contact Information | Slides 92 to 93 |\n| ThankYou | Slides 94 to 95 |\n\n [nj.gov](nj.gov/education)[/education](nj.gov/education) 3  \nWIDA ACCESS Assessments Information  \n [nj.gov/](nj.gov/education)[education](nj.gov/education) 4  \nPurpose oftheWIDA ACCESS Assessment  \n• In accordance with the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and state statute, all LEAs and APSSDs in New Jersey must administer the WIDA ACCESS English language proficiency assessment to all multilingual learners (MLs) in grades K–12.
