Two TELPAS Interfaces in 2010

• An enhanced online interface will be introduced
  this spring. To transition to the new interface,
  two interfaces will be used in the live
  administration.
• Districts will test in the original interface
  (Interface B) or the enhanced interface
  (Interface A). Districts will not be assigned two
  interfaces. Interface assignments were
  communicated in fall 2009.
• Districts will not have to select the interface
  when setting up sessions it occurs
  automatically.

New Tutorials for Both Interfaces

• New tutorials are available for both the original
  and enhanced interfaces.
