When AEPS‐3 users are certified, you can be confident that your assessment information is reliable: for every child, across observers, across different circumstances, and on different days. And more accurate AEPS‐3 results mean better intervention and instructional decisions—and better child outcomes.
HOW IT WORKS
Now one seamless module for birth to age six, the AEPS®‐3 Interrater Reliability Certification takes 2–4 hours to complete. The module includes a narrated training presentation with video examples that illustrate different scoring scenarios to practice and prepare for certification. After viewing the training presentation, users complete the certification test, observing children in naturalistic settings with closed‐captioned videos, and scoring items across every area of the AEPS‐3 Test: fine motor, gross motor, adaptive, social‐emotional, social‐communication, cognitive, literacy, and math. The online system calculates and reports overall results and results by area immediately‐and gives users a chance to review the correct answers and rationale for each score to build their knowledge.
Users who score 80% or higher on the test are certified reliable for three years and can print a certificate. Those with scores that fall below 80% can review the first test and take a second test to try for certification. (A user's access period for the certification module is valid for one year from the date of purchase.) Administrators purchasing multiple subscriptions for staff have access to progress monitoring reports and certification results.

“The AEPS-3 IRR module is simple to access, and the directions to navigate are clear and concise. I appreciated being able to watch the videos as many times as necessary. The explanation about the scoring of the skills in the videos helped me feel more confident about scoring items with reliability.”
