ORELA Elementary Education Subtests I and II (test code NT102) is one of the National Evaluation Series™ tests listed in the Oregon Educator Licensure Assessments program. It is intended for prospective elementary teachers who need to demonstrate subject-matter knowledge as part of Oregon licensure, though the tests a given candidate must take depend on licensure type - the ORELA site directs candidates to read which tests are required for a teaching license in Oregon rather than assuming. The test appears in the ORELA test table as a single entry covering two subtests, and ORELA publishes test-specific information including when and where you can test and preparation materials, reached by selecting the test from the table. Preparation resources described on the program site include preparation materials for your test, a full-length practice test, an expanded study guide, and a test preparation video; for National Evaluation Series™ tests where a practice test is available at registration time, it is provided automatically at no additional cost. Topics on this exam: Subtest I and Subtest II. The ORELA Elementary Education (NT102) study guide has 2 sections and about 679 words.
