What kinds of AEPA tests are there?
Basically, there are five kinds of AEPA tests: subject-knowledge tests (i.e., those that match a particular Arizona certificate), professional knowledge tests, administrator tests (Superintendent, Principal, Supervisor), the test on the Constitutions of the United States and Arizona, and the Basic Skills test. Most candidates for certification must take one or more subject-knowledge tests. In addition, with the exception of those seeking administrator certification, candidates for certification must take an AEPA professional knowledge test. Arizona educator preparation programs may require students to take and pass the Basic Skills test; passing the Basic Skills test is not a requirement for an Arizona teaching certificate.
