Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE)  Testing

You can take the TABE at any Miami-Dade County adult vocational Education Centers (Testing centers). Call the center nearest you to find out the best time to go to register for the TABE.  If you cannot find a center that offers the TABE at a time convenient for you, please check The English Center's TABE Test Schedule.  We test students Monday through Thursday morning, afternoon, and evening.  Tests on Friday, Saturday and Sunday are given mornings and afternoons.  You must come in to register for the test in person.

All adult students are required by Florida state law to be given the TABE before they may begin classes. There are two reasons for this. First, the test gives a complete analysis of the areas in math, reading, and language in which the students have knowledge. It also identifies the areas  in which they need help. This allows the instructor to personalize lessons to fit their needs.

After the Locator has been given, you will take three longer tests in math, language, and reading. The total length of time required for these three tests is about three and one-half hours. They may be taken in one day or in two separate sessions.

All vocational students must be tested during the enrollment process to determine the level of basic skill mastery and to provide help to improve if necessary. Students must pass the TABE before they can be awarded a vocational completer certificate.

After you have tested, fill out the electronic registration form on our home page.  You will receive a confirmation e-mail and will be contacted by our registrar.
