  1. Which CASAS Reading scale score range corresponds to the NRS Low Intermediate Basic Education level?

    Answer: 211-220

    CASAS Reading scores of 211-220 correspond to the NRS Low Intermediate Basic Education educational functioning level (ABE Level 3).

  2. Which web-based system do programs use to enter CASAS data and generate NRS performance reports for state agencies?

    Answer: TOPSpro Enterprise

    TOPSpro Enterprise (TE) is the CASAS web-based data management system used for tracking learner records and producing NRS reports.

  3. Under WIOA, what is the primary federal performance indicator that CASAS gain data is used to demonstrate?

    Answer: Measurable Skill Gains

    Measurable Skill Gains (MSG) is the core WIOA Title II performance indicator, demonstrated when a learner advances at least one NRS Educational Functioning Level.

  4. What is the minimum recommended number of instructional hours between a CASAS pre-test and post-test?

    Answer: 40 hours

    CASAS and NRS guidelines recommend a minimum of 40 instructional hours between pre-test and post-test to ensure meaningful skill development can be measured.

  5. When a learner's post-test score is higher than their pre-test score but does not cross into the next NRS level, how should this be categorized?

    Answer: As a score gain without NRS level advancement

    Any positive pre-to-post score difference is a score gain, but only crossing an NRS level boundary qualifies as a Measurable Skill Gain under WIOA accountability.

  6. Why does CASAS develop parallel A and B forms at each test level?

    Answer: So learners cannot memorize answers between pre-test and post-test administrations

    Parallel A and B forms test equivalent skills at the same difficulty, allowing programs to alternate between pre- and post-test without giving learners a memory advantage.

  7. A learner scores 246 on a CASAS Reading post-test. Which NRS Educational Functioning Level does this represent?

    Answer: High Adult Secondary Education

    A CASAS Reading score of 246 or above corresponds to the High Adult Secondary Education NRS level (ABE Level 6), the highest ABE/ASE functioning level.
