• Policies and procedures for digital testing
• Using Test Day Toolkit
• Bluebook digital testing application for students
• Testing students with accommodations or English learner supports
• Device requirements for students and staff

• Test coordinators should complete the "Test Coordinator Planning" section of their training as soon as they can after training opens, which is about 4–6 weeks before the testing window opens. You will need complete your training in order to support your staff and answer questions as they complete theirs.
• All test day staff should plan to complete their training at least 1 week before test day.
• You'll be able to sign back in and review the training at any time.

The course duration will vary by role and whether you’ve previously delivered a digital assessment in the SAT Suite. The course will ask about digital testing experience and will present some topics as optional. Your progress will be saved so you don't have to complete the training in one sitting. Below are estimates of course duration by test day role:

• School test coordinator: 55–60 minutes
• Proctor/Room monitor: 30–35 minutes
• Hall monitor: 20–25 minutes
• Technology monitor: 25–30 minutes

• Use a College Board–supported browser, like Edge, Firefox, Google Chrome, or Safari, and ensure pop-ups are enabled.
• If you have any problems accessing the training platform, try clearing your browser's cache or temporary internet files and work with your local IT support to add *.collegeboard.org to your organization’s safe list.
• If you're supporting additional tests, such as SAT Weekend, you can add this training by clicking Add Additional Test Administrations on your Training Status Dashboard.

Coordinators can monitor and track the training completion status of their staff in the Training Status Dashboard. They’ll only see the status for staff who have signed in to the training platform and associated themselves with the coordinator’s testing location and assessment. Please note that staff training statuses are not reflected in Test Day Toolkit. Here are some important tips to keep in mind:

• Coordinators must sign in to the training platform with the same email address as indicated in SSOR.
• Coordinators can access their staff’s status by viewing the Staff Training Table, located in the middle of the Training Status Dashboard.
• New Dashboard Features for Fall 2026:
  • Click the Test Day Toolkit link at the top of the dashboard to launch Test Day Toolkit directly from the Training Status Dashboard.
  • Access your completion certificate without leaving your dashboard by clicking Download Certificate.

Once you've passed the knowledge check at the end of the course, your status will be marked as complete. Your coordinator will be able to see your status on their Training Status Dashboard. You can also save or print a certificate if you want to share it with your test coordinator by clicking:

• The blue Download Certificate button on your Training Status Dashboard.
• The View Options button on the course completion screen after relaunching the course.

If you do not see either of these buttons, you likely still have additional course modules to complete or have not yet passed the knowledge check or test out.
