Please note the following important changes to Oregon Administrative Licensure testing requirements:
As of September 1, 2009 all IAL candidates and candidates for the CAL, who did not complete the IAL at GFU and who do not have passing scores for the PRAXIS Test #10410 on file with TSPC by 9/1/09, will be required to pass the ORELA with a score of 240 or higher. The ORELA Administrator Examination is conducted in an afternoon test session that is four hours in length. This test session has a reporting time of 1:30 p.m. and ends at approximately 6:00 p.m. At a single test administration, candidates may take either one or two subtests of the Administrator examination. The information for specific licenses is as follows:
- IAL candidates: For candidates completing after 9/1/09 and who do not have passing scores on the PRAXIS #10410 on file with TSPC by 9/1/09, George Fox University requires that Initial Administrator License candidates pass the ORELA Administrator Examination (Parts I & II) with a score of 240 or higher. Registration information can be accessed at http://www.orela.nesinc.com/OR_viewobjs_opener.asp.
- CAL candidates: TSPC requires that CAL candidates, who do not have passing scores for the PRAXIS Test #10410 on file with TSPC by 9/1/2009, will be required to pass the ORELA with a score of 240 or higher. Registration information can be accessed at http://www.orela.nesinc.com/OR_viewobjs_opener.asp.
The PRAXIS #10410 test will not be offered by ETS to administrator license candidates in Oregon (officially after 9/1/09). This information was forthcoming when you were in summer session courses, and the decision was made during the fall meeting of the Oregon Professors of Educational Administration held on October 8, 2009 in conjunction with a TSPC representative. If you have any questions, contact your advisor in the Administrative Licensure program or Marc Shelton, mshelton@georgefox.edu, 503.554.2869.
