How the CBT Readiness Review Process Works

The CBT Readiness Review Process is a combination of guidelines, interactive tools, and technical assistance that provides districts with a guided approach to discovering their degree of readiness and then developing solutions for reaching full readiness to implement the PARCC assessments. Technical assistance is a key component of the review process. Depending on individual district preference, your regional information center (RIC) or BOCES offers the following technical assistance options:

  • Assistance to a district in gathering infrastructure, testing, and human factors data and then inputting that data into the various components of the Readiness Review process. This assistance is scheduled through communication with your RIC/BOCES contact. Typically, districts that have gathered their internal data will need less than one day of technical assistance time to complete the tools.

  • Assistance to a district in completing the Readiness Gap Analysis Report.  Once a district has completed the Capacity Planning and Other Factors tools, the results from these instruments can be migrated into a report.  The Readiness Review process has provided a template for this report.  LHRIC offers assistance to districts in completing the report template and in customizing the report for presentation to district funding authorities (in the event that the district needs to purchase additional resources to reach a state of readiness).  This technical assistance is scheduled through communication with your district’s RIC/BOCES contact person for technology services.

  • Assistance to a district in investigating and purchasing additional resources.  This assistance is entirely optional, but it may be helpful to have assistance in exploring how RIC or BOCES services (including various CO-SERs) can help your district address gaps in readiness.
