Printing Pre-ID Labels

A Pre-ID (Figure 11) is a label that you affix to a student's testing materials, such as an assessment book.

Corporations and schools can print labels for students not included in the original PreID upload for a given administration, such as students who transferred to a school after the Pre-ID upload.

This task requires the 5" × 2" label stock provided in your test materials shipment. You can print on partially used label sheets. TIDE generates the labels as a PDF file that you download and print with your browser.

Note: All student test booklets need to be affixed with a Pre-ID Label to prevent test discrepancies.
