CASAS is an American organization that tests adult general and English knowledge. CASAS (Comprehensive Adult Student Assessment System) also provides training in various areas.[1] Some educational systems use the CASAS test for ESL (English as a second language) placement. It used to be called the California Adult Student Assessment System.[2] Sixty agencies in California use the test, including state prisons and county jails.[3] Connecticut bases its testing on CASAS, but calls it the Connecticut Competency System.[4] The New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development also uses the test.[5]
