MAP Testing 2020-21: Information You Can Use
MAP testing is important for various reasons – at the OCS level, this is the data we use to provide information to various groups about our professional development needs, our success with student learning, and ultimately, is one point of data for ensuring that all learners are getting the academic support that they need.

MAP Testing FAQs
—————-
How to Add a Student to your Roster:
The directions for creating a student profile are here: Creating a Student Profile [teach.mapnwea.org] [nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com].
The directions describe the need for information that meets two different requirements – Required to complete the student enrollment and required for Reporting. I would just view them as all required.
The information you need is:
- Student First and Last Name
- Student ID
- Date of birth
- Gender
- Grade
- Ethnicity
- School
- Class or Classes
The direct link to creating a student profile are here: Creating a Student Profile [teach.mapnwea.org].
To go to the Help Center, simply click on the word Help in the top right side of your MAP Screen.
From there one can find help by Searching, choosing a topic from the dropdown menus, or by following other links.
