To create a new Assessment Set select the Add Record button

You’ll be presented with an “all in one screen” for creating an assessment set.

Create a unique name for the set.

Then decide if you want to share the assessment set with the district or not. If you mark this True your set will be available for anyone to use,

Click the Select button to open up a list of available assessment tests that can be added to the set.

You can search manually, or use the Filter options to filter the list to make it shorter and more relevant. Filters are built into each column header and can be accessed by hovering over the column header then choosing “filter.”

You will see a text box or filter drop down to type in the assessment name in order to filter down results.

Once you find an assessment, click the check mark on the left to add it to the list. Alternately, you can click on the check mark at the top left to choose all of the current assessments once filtered.

To order the assessments click on the View Selected at the bottom right of the Item list. Here is where you can set the order in which you would like your assessments to display. If you want to change the order, click and hold on the cross-arrow icon to move the assessment up or down in the order.

Select “Add Assessment Tests” to finalize the list and its order, and then Update to finish the saving process.

NOTE: Depending on the size of the assessment set that you've created, it can take up to 90 minutes for the assessment set to display: when attempting to use the set, when the assessments in the set are revised, or when a change to the order of assessments has occurred.
