e-asTTle access is maintained via the Education Sector Logon.
To set up External Coordinator access, download and complete the e-asTTle External Coordinator Request form.
A separate e-asTTle Access Request Form (External Coordinator) must be completed for each person requiring access to e-asTTle as an External Coordinator.

Step 2: Review the e-asTTle support material
This step is optional
External Coordinators are strongly encouraged to review the e-asTTle support material, which includes:
- e-asTTle user manual (writing only)
- Help with e-asTTle page
- Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
- Roles in e-asTTle
Other resources available:
- asTTle technical reports and e-asTTle research report – providing background detail to the programme of research that has informed the development of the asTTle and e-asTTle assessment tools
- Teacher resources – providing resources that support the use of e-asTTle in the classroom
- e-asTTle TKI website What's new? page for important news and updates.
External coordinators can use the e-asTTle training environment to test and showcase various features of e-asTTle in a secure environment ("sandbox").
To access the e-asTTle training environment, please contact the Education service desk at servicedesk@education.govt.nz, to obtain the appropriate ESL account (which is separate and additional to the ESL account obtained in Step 1).
The e-asTTle Training Environment can be accessed from the following pages, depending on the e-asTTle role that you wish to use.
- For teacher, school administrator, and school leader functionality, use e-asTTle training environment for schools.
- For student functionality, use e-asTTle practice for students.
Step 3: Check the e-asTTle system requirements
This step is mandatory
It is essential that any computer used to access e-asTTle meets the e-asTTle system requirements.
