Miscellaneous Information

Access to the WIDA ACCESS Placement Test (W-APT)™ is not yet available in North Dakota. It was the decision of the ND Dept. of Public Instruction to wait to introduce the W-APT until after ACCESS for ELLS® testing. For more information on when the W-APT will be made available, please contact Mari Rasmussen at mrasmussen@nd.gov or by calling (701) 328-2958.
