The current versions of the tests, BEST Plus 2.0 and BEST Literacy are sunsetting on June 30, 2025. After June 2024 CAL will no longer be able to provide support for these versions of the tests, and they will no longer be accepted for NRS reporting purposes.

BEST Plus 2.0 Digital Components
BEST Plus 2.0 is available in two formats: computer adaptive and semi-adaptive print-based. Training is required before you can purchase BEST Plus 2.0. If you would like to know more about the test administrator training, please contact CAL at aea@cal.org.
To determine the number of bundles to select and the quantity to enter, divide the total number of administrations you need by 20. For example, for 480 test administrations, you would divide 480 by 20, which equals 24. The next step is to select the bundle range 20-24 and enter ‘24’ into the quantity box.
If ordering more than 5,000 test administrations or 150+ bundles, please call the CAL store at 1-800-551-3709.
