NOTE: As a result of reminder messages over the past year, most teachers have already personalized test passwords in their own local courses. If you haven’t done this yet, now is the time!  Starting September 1st, all tests will require your personal test password to be set.  The process is quick and easy.   This will eliminate an issue that has been quietly occurring in the background, as common passwords get spread around the province.
