Do I need internet access?​

Q-global

Q-interactive

Yes
Yes, to set up the assessment protocol you want to use. Once the test is uploaded to your iPads, you do not need internet access to administer tests​.
Using either platform…

You control the testing pace and presentation of test stimuli. ​

 

Will the CELF Preschool-3 Screening Test also be available as a digital assessment?​

It will be available on Q-global, but not on Q-interactive.

What if I am a Q-interactive user with a Standard or Speech license?​

CELF Preschool-3 will automatically appear on Standard and Speech licenses after publication. Scoring and reporting options will also appear in your Q-global account.

Use Cases

That is up to you, and depends on the requirements or limitations at your work setting. If you conduct mass screenings, one advantage to using the CELF Preschool-3 Screening Test if you plan to follow up with the child by administering CELF Preschool-3 is that you can take the examinee's responses from the Screening and write them (or just the scores) on the CELF Preschool-3 protocol and skip those questions during the test administration (so the child does not have to take the items twice). But you can certainly choose to use any screening tool before administering the CELF Preschool-3. ​

You can certainly follow up with any diagnostic assessment after using a PLS-5 Screening protocol. However, if you use an assessment other than CELF Preschool-3, you would not be able to transfer responses from the screening test.
