Can I export assessment data? New Feature |
| A |
An “Export” feature is now available to create formatted copies of selected data files so they are readily accessible to use in your statistical analysis or spreadsheet programs.
To export report data, select “Export Data” from the Quick Links in My Account, then:
- Select the Assessment from the drop down. Note: Export is currently available only for ABAS-3, SRS-2, SCQ, Piers-Harris 3, and RISE.
- Select the Form.
- Select the Date Range. The default for both the “From” and "To" dates is blank.
- Select Export Options.
The “Input Data Only” option creates an export file that contains all records, including raw scores within the entered date range.
The “Input Data and Calculated Scores” option creates an export file that contains all records, including raw scores and calculated scores within the entered date range.
Note: for some assessments, this is the only option.
Check the “Include Client Name” check box if you want the client name included in the exported data.
- Select the Delimiter you would like to use to separate each field.
- Click “Submit” to begin exporting the data or click “X” at the top right to close the window without exporting the data.
- Click "Download" in the confirmation window to download the export file.

Why can I see FREE products on my WPS Online Evaluation System bookshelf? |
| A |
The WPS Online Evaluation System (OES) is now offering FREE online scoring and reporting features for the Arizona-4, CASL-2, OPUS, and PPA Scale! Easily accessible to all OES users, these products will now appear on your bookshelf. The Arizona-4, CASL-2, OPUS, and PPA Scale are individually administered direct assessments, so paper protocols still have to be purchased for administration purposes. Online administration (via email) is not available.

| Q▶▼ |
I am an existing user of SPM products (including SPM Quick Tips). Can I convert to online use without additional cost? |
| A |
Yes. If you have purchased any SPM product between January 1, 2013, and April 1, 2014, we will convert your existing record form stock into online
administrations free of charge. Please call WPS Customer Service at 424.201.8800 or 800.648.8857 to arrange this.
Even if you previously purchased an SPM product from a distributor other than WPS, we will (with proof of purchase) exchange it for online usage.
Please note: The exchanges described above allow scoring only and not complete administration. If you wish to be able to administer and score online, you
will need to purchase new online administration form licenses.
Customers who purchased prior to January 1, 2013, will need to purchase new online administration form licenses but need not purchase complete online kits.
