The Arizona Educator Proficiency Assessments (AEPA) were designed to ensure that each certified teacher has the necessary knowledge to teach in Arizona public schools. Legislation also requires that applicants for administrator certification take the appropriate test for the Superintendent, Principal, or Supervisor certifi­cate.
 

The explicit purpose of AEPA tests is to help identify candidates for certification who have demonstrated the level of professional knowledge and skills judged to be important for Arizona educators. All new educators must take and pass the AEPA in order to receive a teaching certificate in the state of Arizona.

The AEPA address areas covered by the Arizona Academic Standards, the Arizona Professional Teaching Standards, and the Arizona Professional Adminis­trative Standards. The tests are criterion referenced and objective based. A criterion-referenced test is designed to measure a candidate’s knowledge in relation to an established standard of performance rather than in relation to the performance of other candidates.


The AEPA program includes the following categories of tests.

  • Professional Knowledge Tests
  • Subject Knowledge Tests
  • Constitutions of the United States and Arizona Test
  • Administrator Tests

 
A set of objectives was developed for each test field to serve as the basis for test content. The test objectives reflect certification standards, curriculum materials, and content of educator preparation programs in Arizona. Each test is composed of questions that measure a candidate’s mastery of these test objectives. Each objective consists of two major parts: the objective statement, which broadly defines the subject matter that an entry-level educator needs to know, and the descriptive statement, which provides examples of the types of knowledge and skills covered by the test objective.
