22. Global Regents Exams BOTH Transition and Framework Global Regents Exams will be available from June 2019 to June 2020. Districts need to decide: Which test? For which students? Advice from NYSED OSA: Decide what you’re going to teach and then test that curriculum: 1998 Core Curriculum?Transition Regents 2014 SS Framework? Framework Regents Must also consider plans for students who do not pass final administration of the Transition Regents in June 2020.
