CBEST Preparation Workshop
Saturday, January 25th – 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM
Child Development Center (CDC), Room 100 (Gavilan College)
The CBEST Test is required for anyone who wants to be a teacher, and most teaching credential programs require that the test be passed prior to entering the credential program.
If you are thinking of becoming a K-12 teacher, even if you have not transferred or finished your bachelor’s degree, now is a great time to prepare and plan for the test. Some teaching credential programs require students to pass CBEST before entering.
The CBEST prep workshop will:
- Describe the CBEST Test and how it is organized: what happens on testing day? How can you prepare?
- Explain how to create strategies for effective time management, answering questions, and navigating the test.
- Give opportunities to practice the three sections of the test: Math, Reading, and Writing.
