Casper Test

In addition to meeting both the minimum and division-specific academic requirements, applicants must complete a Casper test as part of their application for Fall 2026 entry.

Casper is an online, open-response situational judgment test measuring various personal and professional skills. The assessment requires 65-85 minutes.  Casper is used to further enhance fairness and objectivity in the applicant selection process. Please visit acuityinsights.app for details about the Casper test.

Acuity Insights offers a suite of online assessments. You are only required to take Casper as part of your Consecutive Teacher Education application to Brock. You are NOT required to complete the Duet assessment.

Testing Fees

There is a $50 test fee to complete the Casper test payable to Acuity Insights. If you are applying to multiple schools requiring the Canadian Teacher Education Casper test, you may select which schools you would like your test results sent to when registering for your test date.  There will be a $18 distribution fee per school payable to Acuity Insights.

How to Complete the Casper Test

  1. Go to acuityinsights.app and register using a piece of government-issued photo identification. Use the email address you plan to use when applying to the Brock Consecutive Teacher Education program.
  2. Select Canadian Teacher’s Education – After Degree (CSP-20209)
  3. Select Canada for the country and select Brock University to view and select available test dates.

Casper Testing Dates

These are the only testing dates available for Brock Consecutive Teacher Education.  No additional test dates will be scheduled. You may only take the Casper test once per admission cycle. Casper test results are only valid for one admission cycle.

To account for identity verification and payment processing timelines, ensure that you register for your test at least 3 business days before your preferred test date and time.  Prepare to select an alternate testing date as dates fill quickly.

Last-minute bookings are not recommended. If you apply to Brock late in the application window, you risk being unable to take the Casper test. Application fees and Casper Test fees are non-refundable. Plan carefully prior to submitting your application to Brock.

Additional Casper Information

  • There are a limited number of dates available to complete the test and no additional dates will be added. The onus is on the student to apply to the program with enough time to meet all application requirements including completion of the Casper Test.
  • If you do not complete the Casper test, your application will be incomplete and will not be considered for Fall 2026. There are no exceptions.
  • You do not need to arrange to have your Casper test results sent to Brock University.  All scoring of the test is conducted independently by Acuity Insights and will be sent directly to Brock. Brock will not review your test responses; we will only receive a score and use this along with your academic score to determine your final candidate ranking.
