District must use their WIDA-AMS account (https://www.drcedirect.com/all/eca-portal-ui/welcome/WIDA)to order test materials. The ACCESS vendor (DRC) has issued user accounts for its website, www.wida-ams.us, where materials are ordered and electronic test sessions are set up. Each district that participated in ACCESS or Alternate ACCESS testing during 2015-16 has a designated district testing coordinator.
If your district doesn’t know who the designated testing coordinator is and/or the coordinator doesn’t have the account information, please contact Barry Pedersen at ISBE (866-317-6034, bpederse@isbe.net).
If you need assistance in ordering, please contact DRC Customer Support (855-787-9615,wida@datarecognitioncorp.com).
