Reimagining Assessment for the Age of AI

Amit Sevak | CEO

  • Assessment Innovation

How will AI reshape what we teach and how we measure learning? In this episode of Trending in Ed, ETS CEO Amit Sevak shares how AI literacy and innovative assessment methods can prepare students, educators, and workers for a rapidly changing world.

ETS CEO Amit Sevak joins host Mike Palmer on the Trending in Ed podcast to discuss how AI is transforming education, assessment, and the skills needed for the future of work. As the leader of an organization that delivers more than 50 million assessments each year, Sevak shares how ETS is evolving into a global talent solutions provider focused on measuring what truly matters — human potential.

In the episode, they explore:

  • The urgency behind creating a global framework for AI literacy
  • The difference between traditional tests and innovative approaches such as performance-based and AI-enabled assessments
  • How ETS’s work spans K-12 (Praxis, NAEP), higher education (Compass, Brandeis, Cal State systems), and workforce credentialing (PSI, Google Cloud, FAA)
  • The growing “war for AI talent” and what it means for educators, learners, and employers
