Educational Products for Educators and Program Administrators

USCIS has developed a variety of materials to help educators supplement classroom instruction to prepare their students for the naturalization process and English and civics test.

Program administrators can use resources found in this section to enhance adult citizenship education and English as a Second Language programs. Community, faith-based, and civic organizations, and employers that would like to help immigrants adjust to life in the United States and prepare for citizenship can also find helpful resources to support their initiatives.

Visit the Study for the Test (2008 version) page to find materials for the English and 2008 version of the civics test to use as part of your classroom resources. Many of these items can also serve as self-study tools.

Visit the U.S. Government Bookstore to purchase USCIS products and publications.
