Give your team critical insights into the latest ACT test enhancements and how they will impact future testing. 

Starting with the National ACT test administration date in April 2025, the ACT test will undergo enhancements to provide a better experience for your test takers. We’ve reduced the test by 44 questions, allowing for a more focused assessment experience for students, and students will have the choice to take the science section. This series of webinars will explore how these changes will roll out and demonstrate ACT’s commitment to meet the needs of students by providing them with choice and flexibility.
