The deadline for submission of requests and all necessary documentation for alternative testing arrangements is the regular registration deadline. Because of space, staff, and time constraints, there can be no assurance that requests received after this deadline can be accommodated.

Internet Registration
All registration periods. To register on the Internet, your registration must be completed by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on the registration deadline for the period.

Telephone Registration
Late and emergency registration periods only. To register by telephone, call NES at (800) 262-5080 or (916) 928-4001, 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Pacific time, Monday–Friday, excluding holidays. You must call by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on the registration deadline for the period.

If you are required to register by mail, you may do so during the regular and late registration periods only. To register by mail during the regular registration period, your registration materials must be postmarked by the regular registration deadline. During the late registration period, your registration materials must be received by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on the late registration deadline. See "U.S. Mail Registration" for information about how to obtain a registration form.

Register early if you hope to test at the University of Oregon. We do fill up, and candidates will be sent to other out of area test sites.

The CBEST is essentially equivalent to the PRAXIS PPST but is only valid for Oregon and California teaching certificates.
