Test Review

While the ETS Proficiency Profile is developed to measure a common core set of skills, judging the appropriateness of a test for a particular department or program is an important first step in considering the use of an outcomes assessment. Faculty members should review the test content and skill area coverage to determine whether it is consistent with your institution’s expectations.
