If you test in Hawaii at a testing center or using the Praxis at home solution, and your Praxis profile address is in Hawaii, your score report will be sent automatically to the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board.
If you test outside Hawaii or your Praxis profile address is not in Hawaii, your scores are NOT automatically sent to the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board. To have your scores sent to the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board, you must select the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board (state code 8620) as a score recipient when you register.
For all methods of Praxis testing, to request additional score reports you must select the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board (state code 8620) with each additional score report request.
If you wish to take all three computer-delivered Core Academic Skills for Educators exams (5713, 5723, 5733) at the same time, select Core Academic Skills for Educators Combined Test (5752) when registering. Scores will be reported by individual test (5713, 5723, 5733).
