Testing Checklist for the CogAT & Iowa Assessments

The checklist below contains the tasks needed to successfully set up testing in DataManager for both CogAT and Iowa Assessments

  • Rostering: Please ensure your roster has been added to DataManager PRIOR to setting up your test event.
    • If you plan to roster via data files, please see the Data File Help Center to view resources on how to complete and submit templates
    • If you plan to roster manually, please see this help article on how to add a new roster and students to DataManager. See this help article on how to add staff.
  • Test Event Set Up: Once rostering has been established, create your test event and test assignments.
  • Proctoring: Create test sessions based on testing schedule. There is no limit to how many test sessions can be created. Unused test sessions can be later deleted, if needed. 
    • Each test that needs to be administered will need its own test session, however, if you plan to administer multiple tests in a single sitting, you can create just a session for the first test of the day so that you can use Continue Testing All.
  • Double-check Rostering: this step ensures that users will be able to access DataManager and be able to begin testing when planned.
    • Verify school admins and/or teachers can access the platform prior to testing.
    • Verify all students who will participate in testing appear in a Student Lookup to ensure they are available to test.
