Upgrading to eTAP
Essentially, eTAP is a website for the school. All of the school's student information and the eTAP software is accessed from the website. Schools need only a computer running a web-browser (supported current version), a connection to the internet and a password to access the site. Schools also need a printer to print webpages and reports.
eTAP is an incredibly easy program to use, however, some set-up is needed when upgrading to eTAP. For example, many schools use different terminology to describe assessment. eTAP has been designed so that any term of choice can be used. However, terminology does need to be 'across the school'.

eTAP Annual Subscription
eTAP is offered as a service, rather than as a software product. Schools are not charged for the use of eTAP. Instead, there is an annual support/hosting fee based on the number of teachers on staff in the school.
The only additional charge is a required purchase of 10 hours of training when upgrading to eTAP. The programme runs slightly differently to other software and websites familiar to most people, and the training ensures educators are fully aware of eTAP's capabilities and functions.

Included in the Ongoing Subscription Charges for eTAP
School set-up including Ministry OA's and standardised testing.
Customer support

Software availability
eTAP is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Every effort is made to ensure that the software is always available online
Adding new assessment areas/new tests
The eTAP support team updates the software to include any additional tests/assessments a school may desire to add.
