On
January 14, 2008, and as amended on
August 19, 2016, we published in the
Federal Register final regulations for 34
CFR part 462, Measuring Educational
Gain in the National Reporting System
for Adult Education (NRS regulations)
(73 FR 2305, January 14, 2008, as
amended at 81 FR 55552, August 19,
2016). The NRS regulations established
the process the Secretary uses to
determine the suitability of tests for use
in the NRS by States and local eligible
providers. We annually publish in the
Federal Register, and post on the
internet at www.nrsweb.org, a list of the
names of tests and the educational
functioning levels the tests are suitable
to measure in the NRS as required by
§ 462.12(c)(2).
On August 7, 2020, the Secretary
published in the Federal Register (85
FR 47952) an annual notice
consolidating information from previous
notices that announced tests determined
to be suitable for use in the NRS, in
accordance with § 462.13 (August 2020
notice). Also, in the August 2020 notice,
the Secretary announced that ESL tests
and test forms approved for an extended
period through February 2, 2021, are
approved for an additional extended
period through February 2, 2023, and
that an Adult Basic Education (ABE) test
and test forms previously approved for
a three-year period through March 7,
2021, are approved for an extended
period through March 7, 2023.
The Secretary took this action with
respect to the previously approved tests
and test forms, due to the Department’s
desire to minimize potential disruption
in access to new tests for its grantees
caused by the Novel Coronavirus
Disease (COVID–19).
In this notice, the Secretary publishes
the same list of approved tests and test
forms as was published in the August
2020 notice.
Adult education programs must use
only the forms and computer-based
delivery formats for the tests approved
in this notice. If a particular test form or
computer delivery format is not
explicitly specified for a test in this
notice, it is not approved for use in the
NRS. TESTS DETERMINED TO BE

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 14, 2008, and as amended on
August 19, 2016, we published in the Federal Register final regulations
for 34 CFR part 462, Measuring Educational Gain in the National
Reporting System for Adult Education (NRS regulations) (73 FR 2305,
January 14, 2008, as amended at 81 FR 55552, August 19, 2016). The NRS
regulations established the process the Secretary uses to determine the
suitability of tests for use in the NRS by States and local eligible
providers. We annually publish in the Federal Register, and post on the
internet at www.nrsweb.org, a list of the names of tests and the
educational functioning levels the tests are suitable to measure in the
NRS as required by Sec. 462.12(c)(2).
On August 7, 2020, the Secretary published in the Federal Register
(85 FR 47952) an annual notice consolidating information from previous
notices that announced tests determined to be suitable for use in the
NRS, in accordance with Sec. 462.13 (August 2020 notice). Also, in the
August 2020 notice, the Secretary announced that ESL tests and test
forms approved for an extended period through February 2, 2021, are
approved for an additional extended period through February 2, 2023,
and that an Adult Basic Education (ABE) test and test forms previously
approved for a three-year period through March 7, 2021, are approved
for an extended period through March 7, 2023.
The Secretary took this action with respect to the previously
approved tests and test forms, due to the Department's desire to
minimize potential disruption in access to new tests for its grantees
caused by the Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19).
In this notice, the Secretary publishes the same list of approved
tests and test forms as was published in the August 2020 notice.
Adult education programs must use only the forms and computer-based
delivery formats for the tests approved in this notice. If a particular
test form or computer delivery format is not explicitly specified for a
test in this notice, it is not approved for use in the NRS. TESTS
