Waterford Early Learning: Taking a WACS Session
Your students will be able to take the WACS benchmark during the selected benchmark window. To begin their session, they will log in to their Waterford account and select Assessment from the list of courses.

Test Breaks
On average, WACS sessions take approximately 20–30 minutes. You can adjust the time limits for test breaks for your class or individual students.
If a student does not finish their test within the time limit, they will be prompted to take a break, and the program temporarily shuts down. The student can access the program later to finish the test, but they must complete it within 14 days.
If a student does not complete a test by day 14, it expires, and their teacher cannot view their score. The student must be reassessed at a later benchmark.
