Introducing a successful testing program requires guidance from experienced testing experts. The viability and value of the testing program will depend directly on the comprehensiveness of the development process. Critical to a program’s success is the design of its goals, timing and financial plan. Expert advice is required when deciding such issues as:
- Paper vs. computer formats
- Unilingual vs. bilingual
- Certification vs. licensure
- Mandatory vs. voluntary
- National vs. international
- Provincial vs. national and
- Multiple-choice vs. other formats.
The proper financial planning for a program is essential to support the development activities that must take place two to three years prior to the first administration and the maintenance activities that follow. Candidate fees and other revenue sources must be realistically considered. The cost of the testing instrument itself is only one component of the testing. |
