WIDA Assessment District Coordinator Overview This professional development session is designed for staff serving in the role of WIDA Assessment Coordinator and will provide the information, resources, and guidance needed to organize and support a successful WIDA assessment administration within their district. The WIDA Assessment Coordinator plays an important role throughout the assessment process and is responsible for managing a variety of tasks, timelines, and requirements. The goal of this training is to help coordinators feel prepared and confident in their role by reviewing important dates and deadlines, key steps in the administration process, coordinator responsibilities, and tasks that must be completed before, during, and after testing. Prior to attending the training, WIDA Assessment Coordinators should ensure they are able to successfully log in to both the WIDA Secure Portal and WIDA AMS. Both systems can be accessed through the wida.us website. Having access established before the training will allow participants to follow along with demonstrations, locate important resources, and become familiar with the systems they will use throughout the assessment administration process. (Participants should bring a device to be able to set up training accounts for staff as well as to verify their own access.)
