The Colombian Institute for the Evaluation of Education (Icfes) reported that the school registration process for the Saber 11 test presents technical problems resulting from the implementation of the digital transformation strategy that includes a technological update and maintenance of its servers.

Given the complaints from the educational centers, the Icfes ruled on the matter. ”Our technology team has been working tirelessly to fully restore access to our services. “We have deployed additional resources and are working closely with our technical service providers to resolve this situation as soon as possible,” the entity stated in a press release.

Likewise, Icfes announced that the registration period was extended until May 29 without any extraordinary charge, but requested educational institutions to avoid registering until the last day, because setbacks may occur.

This process is essential for students to take the tests on the stipulated date and thus obtain their score within the established times. For this reason, it is necessary for educational institutions that have experienced problems at the time of registration to contact Icfes immediately to guarantee that the registration of their students is carried out successfully.

It is worth mentioning that the Saber 11 test is not only aimed at students who are in their last high school degree, but is also presented by teachers and Colombians who are looking to increase their score on the test or have not taken it.

If you are interested in taking the test, follow the steps below. To consult the citation, you have to enter any search engine from your computer (Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, among others) and search for the Icfes page: https://www.icfes.gov.co/ .

Next, you must look in the main bar for the 'Citation' option, which you must click. The page will redirect you to another window in which you will be asked for a series of important information for your registration and with which the entity will know which exam you are looking to take.
