The CLTNCE will be administered on July 15 and 16. Test administration requires only one day. Candidates will be scheduled and notified of their individual testing schedule following registration. The second test administration day will only be used if the number of test candidates exceeds the maximum.
Candidates for the 2023 CLTNCE administration must have all prerequisites fulfilled and submitted along with the registration deposit by July 1st.
All Groups submit their annual fee and proof of five CLT work hours. End of cycle for Group D.
The CLTNCE will be administered on Nov. 5, 2022 at Gallaudet University. Valid, passing scores on the prerequisite tests, the CAECS-E and CAECS-R, must be submitted at the time of registration. Scores awarded in years 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 will be considered valid for CLTNCE registration. These prerequisites aim to help candidates assess their current skill level. If you suspect your skills have changed, we encourage you to retake the tests with sufficient time to incorporate feedback.
Test administration is contingent on Gallaudet University’s policies regarding in-person events on campus, which can change with fluctuating rates of COVID infection.
Registration application and the initial $150 non-refundable deposit should be submitted by October 15, 2022. Individuals who wish to take the CLTNCE, but may not be able to complete registration by this deadline should contact our office in advance.
The TECUnit is updating procedures for administering the CAECS-E and CAECS-R. A task force is exploring feasibility of online, direct, remote proctoring by the TECUnit. This would significantly streamline the administration process, eliminate the need to send and return materials through the mail, and get test submissions to raters more quickly. We’re excited about this advancement and its potential benefit to the community. In order to allocate resources to begin this process, the TECUnit has established a moratorium on the Cued American English Competency Screening - Expressive (CAECS-E) and the Cued American English Competency Screening - Receptive (CAECS-R) through August 31, 2021.. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but this temporary interruption will support a smoother experience for test takers and better security for test materials. Thank you.
