The Goal Key is created and assigned by your school, and it is usually associated with a specific class or test you are taking. Unfortunately, this means we here at EdReady do not know it; your school has to provide you with the correct key for your particular situation.
Here are some suggestions to locate the key:
- Check the instructions for EdReady that were provided by your school; they should include the key.
- Contact your teacher, advisor, testing center, or whoever told you to use EdReady.
Please note that the Goal Key is not the same as your account activation code and is never sent to you by email from EdReady. It is ONLY given out by the school.
Special Cases:
UHCC
The UHCC system has a different goal key for each school. They are posted on the home page of the UHCC EdReady site at https://uhcc.edready.org. You have to be logged out to see them. So if you are in the site and you do not know the key, you will need to log out, copy the key, then log back in and enter it.
Ivy Tech
Ivy Tech students get a goal key assigned automatically based on their major. This occurs when your first register your account by clicking on the Knowledge Assessment button, which is located in the Student Dashboard of MyIvy (https://myivy.ivytech.edu/). If you have any issues getting into your Knowledge Assessment account, contact your campus Knowledge Assessment representative or create a helpdesk ticket in MyIvy Student Dashboard.
Placement Testing
If your school is using EdReady for placement testing, it is possible that you will not get a key or see any content to work on until someone on staff places you in a Goal from the admin side of EdReady. They do this to prevent you from working on EdReady outside of a proctored environment. If you have any questions about the goal key, you should contact your school's testing center to ask them how to proceed. We here at EdReady do not know the specific protocols for each school.
