Support for Texas Incentive Allotment (TIA)
Over 90 NOCTI credentials are included on the Texas list of third-party assessments approved for TIA. NOCTI assessments provide reliable data points to measure student growth and document instructional impact aligned to Texas accountability systems.
Classroom Implementation
Teachers can show demonstrated impact by tracking skill progression across the program with documented outcomes from reporting data.
- Administer a pre-test early in the program to establish a baseline of student skills.
- Conduct a mid-year or second pre-test to measure growth and adjust instruction where needed.
- Post-test at the end of the course or program to verify competency attainment and drive TIA data documentation.
- Analyze growth across all assessment points to demonstrate instructional impact.
