Many of ACER's online school assessments are available to purchase as part of a 12-month licence. For most schools, licences are the most flexible and cost-effective option because they allow unlimited use of the assessments and access to online reporting during your licence period.
Staff members with the 'Client Administrator' role can purchase licences by credit card or invoice at any time from the Store within your school's account.

Assessment licence pricing is based on the size of your school, as measured by your total student enrolments (F–12) and the number of licensed assessments.
You can mix and match different assessments under the same licence (for example, PAT Reading Adaptive, PAT Science, AGAT and Adolescent Coping Scales for Schools).
Use the PAT assessment licence pricing calculator to work out the cost for your school.
Note
Some assessments, such as eWrite and the Assessment of Languages Competence (ALC) are only available via single-use credits.
Renewing your test licence
Account administrators will be notified by email when it is time to renew your school's assessment licence.
Simply follow the link from the email or on the Home page of your account to review your current or previously licensed products. Confirm, remove or add products to your cart and proceed to checkout to renew your licence.
Your new licence expiry date will be 12 months from your existing expiry date or from the date of renewal, whichever is later.
