Entering Pre-ID Exam Information

The Pre-Identification or "Pre-ID" process is a service currently provided to local educational agencies (LEAs) to assist with the administration of statewide assessments. To use the service, LEAs send the required student information to the test vendor in advance to "pre-plug" on test answer documents or create labels. Specifically, LEAs extract the required information for each student from their local Student Information System (SIS) to create a Pre-ID file. LEAs then submit the Pre-ID file to the test vendor to generate bar-coded answer documents and/or bar-coded labels for the answer documents, and the vendor distributes them back to the LEA. Students then fill in their answers on the pre-coded or pre-labeled answer documents. After testing, the answer documents are returned to the test vendor for scoring and processing.
