Completing the Technical Readiness checklist

The Technical Readiness tab allows you to: 

  • review all the Administration Checklist items 
  • check the completed items 
  • track your progress 
  • complete the Principal Questionnaire

When both the technical readiness checklist and the school board IT checklist are completed, a green box confirming the assessment can be administered will be displayed. 

NOTE 
Teachers can administer the assessment only once these checklists are completed.

School administrators should check each item in the list once completed.
