Testing Services

Testing can help ensure you’re taking the right classes and prepare you for your next step. ECC’s Testing Center is available to assist you with placement tests, make-up tests, certification exams, and more. Most services are for incoming ECC students, but we also offer high school students tests and certification exams and are open to the broader community.
