The Test of Early Communication and Emerging Language (TECEL) is a revision and standardization of Mary Blake Huer's Nonspeech Test, a well-regarded assessment used with both typically developing young children and older individuals with moderate to severe language delays.

  • Includes both receptive and expressive colour-coded items for easy diagnostic analysis of results.
  • Flexible administration options include interview, observation, and/or a combination of both.
  • Recognizes the continuum from prelinguistic communication behaviours to symbolic forms in emerging language.
  • Can be administered to verbal and nonverbal respondents and is suitable for assessing individuals who communicate by means other than speech.
  • Test materials and interview questions are designed to be cross-cultural in content, free of jargon or difficult-to-understand concepts, and appropriate for all ages.
