Benefits of NZCER Assist

NZCER Assist allows schools the option of administering NZCER assessments and surveys. There are many benefits of online testing, including: 

  • Immediate access to NZCER Assist's range of reports
  • 100% accuracy in marking
  • More engaging for students
  • Ability to adapt the test platform, such as dyslexia fonts
  • Allows students to sit tests on computers, laptops, and tablets as small as the iPad mini
  • Huge time saving in administration
  • It's cheaper – no need to purchase paper tests or answer sheets

If you are interested in a demonstration of any of the online tests or NZCER Assist generally, contact us at assessmentservices@nzcer.org.nz.

Not ready for online testing? No problem. Most of our assessments are still available as paper-based tests.

Online reporting and analysis

Whether schools decide to use online and/or paper-based assessments, NZCER Assist continues to give schools access to a wide range of online reports that analyse achievement at individual, class, school and question level.

We provide a number of options for using NZCER Assist in order to meet the needs of all schools:

  • Online testing: After students sit the tests online, the full range of reports are immediately available to view on NZCER Assist.
  • Manual entry: Schools purchase paper tests and manually enter the results into NZCER Assist. This will then generate the full range of reports.

Please note that PAT Pānui and PAT Pāngarau can only be marked online through NZCER Assist, and we do not have scanning of any tests available. 

Cost structure

Schools pay $300.00 for the yearly (PAT) subscription. Each PAT subject area costs $30.00 – you choose the number of subject areas you require.

Online testing incurs additional costs. You can visit our detailed costing page to see exactly how much NZCER Assist will cost based on the number of students and the subject areas you wish to test.

Survey product prices vary - pricing information is available within NZCER Assist via the Subscriptions area.
