Start Pre-AP Course Audit
The Purpose of Pre-AP Course Audit
Before your school can be authorized to offer Pre-AP, you’ll need to complete Pre-AP Course Audit.
Completion of Course Audit is required to:
- Grant teachers access to Pre-AP Classroom, including instructional materials, professional learning, and assessment tools
- Authorize your school to use "Pre-AP" in its course names
- Include your school in Pre-AP Course Ledger
Before You Start
Designate a Pre-AP Course Audit administrator who can approve teacher forms for the current school year. This can be the principal, a principal’s designee, or Pre-AP coordinator. It’s important that this person be available during the summer months because the Course Audit process must be completed before the school can access Pre-AP Classroom. You’ll need both a Course Audit administrator and Pre-AP teachers to complete the Pre-AP Course Audit.
Supporting AP Readiness
The following actions support student preparedness for AP.
- Pre-AP for All: Increase the number of students taking AP by having all students engage in Pre-AP.
