Study.com has announced the launch of its PRAXIS 8000 series test preparation, the only test prep available for these exams and the only one created in direct collaboration with ETS. The prep courses are now live and fully aligned with the updated ETS PRAXIS Elementary Education Fundamentals exams and the new Flexible Path to Teacher Certification framework. This milestone collaboration between Study.com and ETS reflects a shared commitment to supporting the next generation of educators.
The new PRAXIS Elementary Education Fundamentals tests are part of ETS's Flexible Path to Teacher Certification, launching Spring 2026. These redesigned assessments reflect current educational standards and practices and introduce a modular testing system that allows candidates to take or retake discrete content sections at their own pace, reducing barriers and increasing confidence on the path to licensure. Through close collaboration with ETS over the past months, Study.com developed the first and only authentic preparatory content specifically for this new testing model. This early alignment ensures candidates preparing for the PRAXIS 8000 series have access to accurate, research-driven materials built expressly for the updated exams.
The PRAXIS 8000 series launch also highlights Study.com's AI-first product development capabilities. This launch demonstrates Study.com's ability to leverage AI combined with subject matter experts and ETS test materials to create top quality preparation materials for the Praxis 8000 exams on an aggressive time frame. ETS's flexible certification pathway reshapes the licensure testing experience by enabling candidates to take smaller, focused portions of the test at their own pace, retake only the specific section(s) needed rather than the entire test, and receive diagnostic insights to better target study efforts. With Study.com's aligned prep now available, aspiring educators have access to a comprehensive, structured study solution designed specifically for this modernized assessment model.
The launch of Study.com's PRAXIS 8000 series prep marks only the beginning. As our collaboration with ETS continues to grow, additional innovations and expanded offerings are on the horizon. Study.com remains committed to advancing teacher preparation through strategic partnerships, AI-powered development, and first-to-market solutions that meet the evolving needs of educators nationwide. 'We are incredibly excited about the continued collaboration with ETS and the PRAXIS team,' said Adrian Ridner, co-founder and CEO of Study.com. 'Together, we're building innovative, aligned preparation solutions that not only support the evolving certification landscape, but most importantly empower future educators. This partnership reflects our broader commitment to working hand-in-hand with exam providers and learners to create accessible, high-quality pathways into the teaching profession.' More exciting PRAXIS developments are coming soon.
