BEST Plus 2.0 is a flexible, reliable oral proficiency assessment for Adult English Language Learners. A face-to-face oral interview, BEST Plus 2.0 measures performance over the full range of proficiency levels represented in the areas of Listening Comprehension, Language Complexity, and Communication. The examinee’s ability to communicate in English is assessed through questions tied to authentic situations that arise in daily life in the United States.Training participants will practice administering the computer-based version of the test, and familiarize themselves with the scoring rubric.

Upon completion of BEST Plus 2.0 test administrator training, you will be able to:

• Recognize the importance of assessing students’ language abilities

• Administer and score the BEST Plus 2.0 oral interview using the computer-adaptive version

• Run the BEST Plus 2.0 Test Administration Program

• Interpret BEST Plus 2.0 scores



This training is also appropriate for those who attended this class in the past year but have had little experience in administering the test and need a review in order to remain certified.



REQUIRED: You are required to bring the BEST Plus 2.0 Test Administrator Guide. In addition to the Test Administrator Guide, bring the BEST Plus Scoring Rubric, the Test Administrator Registration form and the Test Administrator Training Evaluation form. (The RAEN will provide a very limited number of T.A.G.’s to each program; check with the administrator of your program; he/she should have one for you.)
