Abstract: This study examines how well-prepared instructors in higher education are for online assessment. The aim is to investigate EFL teachers’ attitudes towards online assessment, examine their e-assessment literacy skills, and explore the challenges they faced when transitioning to this new mode of assessment so quickly. This study used a survey design with a small-scale questionnaire sent to twenty-four university teachers from Algeria’s four poles to assess their preparedness for the precipitate conversion to remote assessment. The data unclosed that the majority of teachers were not prepared for such a change. The paper offers practical strategies to prepare teachers for designing and developing appropriate online assessments. Keywords: attitudes, challenges, e-assessment, e-assessment literacy
