The test information guides provide a general overview of each test and are not intended as all-inclusive sources of content knowledge, nor are they substitutes for college course work. The sample items are not an exact representation of the content of the actual test. The guides are intended to help candidates prepare for an examination by presenting an overview of the content and format of the examination.
Test information guides are available for the FTCE and FELE. Test information guides include a description of the test, a list of competencies and skills tested, sample test items, and a reference sheet, if applicable.
To order a test information guide, select “Test Information Guides” and follow the instructions provided. It is to the candidate’s advantage to order test information guides well in advance of the test date.
