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 CPT3A, for example, it is imperative that your tests for AAC are suitable for assessing Access Arrangements, and we recommend that you choose your two tests required for CCET with this in mind.
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.
Delegates will be required to have the TOD and CTOPP 2 as the foundation of the test battery for Dyslexia PRW. We feel the ‘Test Of Dyslexia Comprehensive Kit’ is likely to be the most suitable for delegates as this covers a wide age range from 6-89 years old.
In addition, it would be beneficial if delegates had access to DASH or DASH 2 as a supplementary measure of handwriting speed, but this is not compulsory. The DASH 2 has recently been released and this covers a wider age range than the first edition from 8-25 years. However, it will also remain possible to use DASH for two years from the date of DASH-2 publication (March 2024). Therefore, DASH or DASH-2 can be used for the course at the current time.
Please note that you will not need access to these tests until about two months into the course.
