The following tests are a selection of popular purchases and have been confirmed by our tutors as suitable for the different courses outlined below.
These tests are available from the Dyslexia Action Shop. As a Real Training delegate, you can purchase these through the Study Purchase Scheme at the Dyslexia Action Shop with a 10% discount, if required.
If you plan to purchase a test, it is worth considering whether you intend to further your studies with another course, and selecting tests that are suitable for both.
If you are studying CCET you will need two tests, both of which will need to be administered and scored manually (pen and paper format). If you are studying CPT3A, it is imperative that your tests for AAC are suitable for assessing Access Arrangements. We recommend you have access to test/s which cover text reading speed, writing speed, spelling and cognitive processing for a full range for assessment.
For guidance on tests required for our Dyslexia Professional Report Writing (DPRW) module, please see the information further down the page.
DPRW Test Information
If you are thinking of continuing to complete Dyslexia Professional Report Writing (DPRW) after CCET (with the aim of becoming a Specialist Assessor), please be aware that you will have to hold an SpLD practitioner / teacher qualification before commencing this course.
For the Dyslexia Professional Report Writing course, you will be required to have the following as the foundation of your test battery:
- The TOD – We feel the ‘Test Of Dyslexia Comprehensive Kit’ is the most suitable for delegates as this covers a wide age range from 6-89 years old
- CTOPP2
- DASH 2
Please note that you will not need access to these tests until about two months into the course.
