For districts, colleges, and associations
Your candidates are not unqualified.
They are under-prepared.
When capable people keep failing the qualifying exam, it is rarely about ability. It is about preparation. Built To Pass gives your group the strategy layer that turns studying into passing.
Built by Dr. Jason Ampel, who has helped more than 70,000 candidates pass. Your people get 40 short video lessons taught by him, every one in English and Spanish.
No budget to approve? There’s a $0, zero-risk way to bring us in.

One method. Every exam, every kind of buyer.
The problem looks different from each seat. The fix is the same system. Choose the group you are buying for.
Who this is for
K-12 districts buying for paraprofessionals, teachers, and staff.
Good people on my team keep failing the qualifying exam. Every retake costs us time, money, and momentum, and the pipeline stalls.
What Built To Pass delivers
- 01
Move the pipeline
More candidates clear the exam, so seats fill and cohorts finish on schedule.
- 02
Cut the cost of retakes
Fewer repeat attempts mean less churn, less lost payroll time, and less wasted budget.
- 03
One method, every exam
From paraprofessional to leadership, the same system adapts to each test your staff faces.
02 Why it works
No study guide works without this.
Content tells your people what to know. It does not teach them how the exam behaves. Built To Pass teaches two signature strategies, the C.L.U.E. Method and Bob & Weave, the system for reading a question, attacking it, and beating the clock.
AI Test Coach
A personal coach, powered by Claude, mapped to each candidate’s exact exam. It writes practice, breaks down every miss, and never sleeps.
English & Spanish
Every lesson is taught in both, and the AI Test Coach answers in the candidate’s language. Your Spanish-speaking candidates get the same full system.
The strategy holds it up. Now the content your group buys actually sticks.

03 Ways to bring it in
Four ways in, including one at no cost.
Bring it in the way that fits your budget and your timeline. Start free and grow into tracked access whenever you are ready.
Partnership
$0 to you
Sign a simple one-year MOU and we set up a co-branded enrollment page for your group. Your people join on their own at $19/mo or $89/yr, versus the $29/mo individual rate. You pay nothing, and you can walk away anytime.
Start a partnershipSeats for your people
$109 a seat, less by volume
Buy seats by volume, each a full year of access below the $197 individual price. A seat is not tied to one exam: the holder can change their target exam whenever they pass one, so a single seat covers everything that person has to take. Distributed by license key, with the administrator portal so you control seats and see progress.
See the admin portalSite license
One invoice, priced per seat
Your whole cohort on one agreement: a single invoice, a single renewal date, and one contact. It covers every exam your staff take, not one of them, so a math teacher, a special education teacher and a principal candidate all draw on the same license. Priced on the people it covers rather than a headcount ceiling, so you are never paying for seats nobody uses. Above 500 candidates we quote directly.
See the admin portalLive workshop
$4,500 flat
A 4-hour in-person session where Dr. A trains your candidates and they build their prep in the room. Up to 50 candidates, travel included.
See the workshopThe no-cost partnership shows you how many of your people enroll. Want per-person progress, readiness, and exportable reports? That comes with any paid seat agreement.
04 What it costs
Pay per candidate. One ladder, any size.
Pick your term, slide to your candidate count, and the calculator does the math. One rate card whether you buy a handful of seats or put the whole district on a site license. These are 2026-27 launch rates: we are building our first cohort of district partners, and the districts that start with us this year are the ones that get them.
How long do they need it?
A full year covers every window plus the summer, with seats assigned to named staff and per-person reporting.

Procurement, answered straight
The questions buyers ask first.
Because those programs teach content, not strategy. They tell candidates what to know, not how the exam works or how to attack it. Built To Pass is the layer underneath: run it as a prerequisite so your existing prep finally lands, or on its own when no good option exists for a given exam. We also teach candidates to research their exam blueprint and build their own materials with our AI Study Lab, so even a niche test gets custom prep.
Yes. With a simple, no-cost MOU we set up a co-branded enrollment page for your group, and your people join on their own at a standing partner discount ($19/month or $89/year, versus the $29/month individual rate). Your organization pays nothing and there is no minimum. It is the zero-risk way to bring Built To Pass to your people.
No. Access is to the method, not to one test, so a math teacher, a special education teacher and a principal candidate all draw on the same purchase. A seat is not tied to an exam either: the holder changes their target exam from their own dashboard whenever they pass one, and the blueprint, practice and AI Test Coach repoint to the next. One seat covers everything that person has to sit while their access is active.
Per candidate, with the rate falling as the count rises. A full year runs $109 a seat for small groups down to $55 at 300 or more. A semester, for groups working toward a single exam window, runs $79 down to $35. A semester can be extended to the full year at any time for the difference. These are 2026-27 launch rates, held for districts that start with us this school year. That is one ladder whether you buy a handful of seats or put your whole district on a site license, so there is one set of numbers to budget against rather than two competing ones. A site license is the same rate card bought as one agreement, priced on the people it covers rather than a headcount ceiling. Above 500 candidates, and for state agencies and statewide programs, we quote directly. A live workshop is $4,500 flat for up to 50 candidates, 4 hours in person with travel included, and it carries a full year of access for everyone in the room. Slide the calculator on this page for your numbers, or send them to us and we return a quote.
Yes. We are set up to work with district, university, and association procurement, including purchase orders and invoicing.
We work with cohorts of many sizes. Reach out with your numbers and we will find the right fit.
944 exams are built and ready, each with a verified blueprint behind it: the exam board's own published map of what is tested and how much each part counts. That includes the full Praxis, MTEL, TExES, NYSTCE and GACE families, plus healthcare, business, the trades, public safety and admissions. If your group faces something outside that list, the method is exam-agnostic by design and we build the blueprint.
Yes. Every lesson is delivered in both English and Spanish, and the AI Test Coach responds in the candidate’s language. Your Spanish-speaking candidates get the exact same full system, not a stripped-down version. For organizations with bilingual staff, this removes a real barrier to getting people credentialed.
Yes. Every paid seat agreement includes an administrator portal with progress, cohort readiness, and exportable reporting. See the administrator portal page for the full view.
A workshop can be scheduled in a matter of weeks. Licensed access can go live quickly once your seats are set.
We collect only what we need to run the course, we never sell data, and access is protected. For the no-cost partnership we see only how many of your people enroll, not individual records. We are glad to review privacy details with your team.
