Woodcock-Johnson IV Tests of Achievement (WJ IV)
Remote Administration

WJ IV

Strict procedures need to be in place to ensure test security, but it works really well.

This page is only for remote administration.
For in-person administration, please see the WJ IV In-Person Administration page.

North Carolina § 115C-564 requires annual administration of a nationally-normed test on grammar, reading, spelling, and mathematics achievement.

Cindy Hyde, cindy@achievementtesting.info, is your best option for achievement testing.  She has attended specialized training at Rutgers from the test publisher and provides the best value.  A frequent comment is that "the scores are nice to have, but the consult with Cindy is invaluable!"

The Woodcock Johnson IV remotely administered is done orally via Zoom in a one-on-one environment and meets North Carolina state home-schooling requirements. Remote administration typically will not qualify for gifted programs since the "Broad" scores require the fluency subtests, which are not part of Cindy's remote offering. Prices include consultation with parents to discuss test results and observations during testing and also WJ IV Interpretation & Instructional Interventions Program (WIIIP®), which provides a detailed interpretation of student performance offering research-based interventions and strategies based on an examinee’s scores.
