What is Praxis?
The Praxis Series tests measure teacher candidates’ knowledge and skills. The tests are used for licensing and certification processes and include the components listed below.
Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators (Core)
These tests measure academic skills in reading, writing and mathematics. They were designed to provide comprehensive assessments that measure the skills and content knowledge of candidates entering teacher preparation programs. These tests are designed to be taken early on within an education major’s program, possibly upon entrance or within the first two years. See Praxis Core information.
Praxis II Subject Assessments
These tests measure subject-specific content knowledge, as well as general and subject-specific teaching skills, that you need for beginning teaching. See Praxis II information.
