Educational Proficiency Plans (EPPs)

DESE provided this FAQ document related to the Competency Determination (CD) on December 11, 2024. As stated in the answer to question 1 of the FAQ, "Students who have not yet earned the CD, including those on an Educational Proficiency Plan (EPP), can no longer earn a CD through an MCAS test or retest process, and instead must earn a CD that follows a process as described in the new law."

After the effective date of the new law, EPPs will no longer be a part of the CD. Refer to the guidance in the FAQ linked above for implementation of the CD after the effective date.
