How to Administer the ACT Test

The ACT is a test that students take when they are ready to go to college. It measures the student's ability to comprehend basic educational facts that the student should have learned during his high-school career. If you wish to administer the ACT, you first must become certified to do so. The ACT is a highly controlled test because its results have major implications for the rest of the life of the student.

      Set up your ACT testing center according to ACT guidelines. There are requirements that you will have to meet in order to make sure the testing center is set up correctly. For instance, you will need to have security measures in place, and you will need computers that are securely blocked so users will have access only to the test and nothing else. The ACT will then send you the software you need to set up the ACT tests for yourself.
