SUBJECT:
RISE Summative Training
The RISE summative testing window is from March 12 - June 7, 2024. RISE passwords get reset each year, so please be sure your teachers log in and reset their passwords for this year at utahrise.org.
As testing is nearly underway, please make sure all testing teachers complete the yearly RISE test administration training. Many teachers only use the RISE systems once a year, so yearly training on how it all works is needed. Only teachers who will administer the RISE test need to be trained. For your reference, here is a link to the Testing Ethics Policy.
Your school is responsible for making sure all testing teachers get trained in RISE test administration. Should you choose to hold a training at your school, this fulfills the training requirement. Teachers have two additional options to be trained for RISE testing:
RISE Canvas Course
The RISE test administration training requirement can be fulfilled by completing the Canvas course online. All teachers in grades 3-8 have been added to the course, should you choose to have them complete the training through this method. A certificate of completion for relicensure points will be available for download at the end of the course.
Zoom RISE Training
Teachers can attend one of the following Zoom RISE trainings to fulfill the training requirement.
Here is the Zoom link for these trainings:
