Praxis™ I Test - Agricultural Education

Praxis™ I Test (PPST®)

All students planning to enroll in an initial professional education program in Wisconsin colleges or universities that leads to a license to teach in the state will be required to pass basic skills tests in reading, writing, and mathematics. The tests are usually taken during the first or second year of undergraduate work.

The tests are the Pre-Professional Skills Tests (PPST®) developed and administered by Educational Testing Service. The tests cover basic skills needed by teachers and were selected by the state Superintendent of Public Instruction based on the recommendation of a committee of Wisconsin teachers and teacher educators. The successful completion of either the PPST will fulfill the Wisconsin requirement.

Satisfactory score on the Pre-Professional Skills Test (PPST) or the Computer Based Pre-Professional Skills Test (C-PPST) must be received (the official score sheet) prior to the admission deadline.
