Using ACT®, PreACT®, SAT®, and PSAT® Resources in Progress Learning

Updated by Mackenzie Maddox

Progress Learning provides ACT®, PreACT®, SAT®, and PSAT® resources for student practice and assessment. Teachers add the appropriate subjects to their classes, allowing them to view reports and giving students access to those subjects in their Study Plan. Administrators use a separate subject area to assign Premium Assessments. Use the information below to determine the appropriate setup for each grade level.

ACT® and PreACT® Resources

Progress Learning has been named a Preferred Test Prep Provider of the ACT® test. Official ACT® content is labeled Licensed ACT®, and the remaining Progress Learning content has been updated to align with the enhanced ACT®. Older resources are labeled prior version.

Teachers: Add the appropriate ACT® or PreACT® 8/9 subjects to your classes. Students will then see those subjects as options in their Study Plan.
