The April 2026 Graduation Assessment session (April 20-24) includes:

  • Grade 10 numeracy and literacy assessments (NME10, NMF10, LTE10, and LTP10)
  • Grade 12 literacy assessment (LTE12)
  • Évaluation de littératie de la 12e année – Français langue première (LTP12)

Schools should submit registrations for this session by uploading their graduation files (DEM, CRS, XAM) to the new Graduation module on the Education Data Exchange (EDX). Registration management has also moved to the Graduation Assessments section on EDX, which replaces the former Online Assessment Register.

For details, please visit Graduation Assessments: Information for Administrators.

Assessment Registration Process
Pre-registration is required for all graduation assessments. Schools with students planning to write in April should register students using the instructions below:

  1. Schedule your students for the graduation assessments in your school’s student information system (SIS). For MyEducation BC guidance, please consult with your level 1 support.
  2. Before April 9, complete a graduation data file upload (DEM, CRS, XAM) to EDX Graduation.Students’ assessment registrations must be reported in the XAM file.
  • A valid assessment session date from the Graduation Assessment Schedule must be used (i.e., 2026/04 for this session).
  • Once graduation files are successfully uploaded, visit the Graduation Assessments section on EDX to further review or edit registrations.
  • After April 9, registrations will be transferred to the e-Assessment System (EAS).  Schools must add any new writers directly to EAS.
  • On April 13, school administrators will receive an email about how to access the EAS for this session and the technical requirements needed to ensure successful administration. If you have not received this by end of day, contact VRETTA at bced-support@vretta.com and copy Assessments@gov.bc.ca.
  • From April 13, download the password letter required for administering the session to students, directly from EAS. Following step 4, schools will access EAS to review the list of registered students and add any late registrants as needed. For instructions, refer to the administration guides available under Technical Guides on the EAS website.
