CTAP2 is an on-line, self-assessment survey that allows educators to determine their level of technology proficiency. The self-assessment is based upon rubrics that are aligned with the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) "Factors to Consider," which is the Technology Standard for a California K-12 Preliminary Teaching Credential. Based on the results of the assessment, educators can select the most appropriate training opportunities to advance their proficiency level.
