EVALUATE & IMPROVE
Once a test has been launched, critical work continues to maintain the integrity of the program. ACS has partnered with multiple testing agencies in the psychometric review and independent audit of their programs to help identify the strengths, weaknesses and opportunities present within their programs.
Psychometric Analyses
ACS has partnered with a variety of clients in the completion of psychometric analyses designed to allow each organization to review and finalize test items and forms. These partners have included the certification and licensure programs where ACS completed a series of classical and Rasch-based IRT analyses in support of their testing programs. It has also included programs like the state Bar associations for whom ACS completed a series of analyses focused on the reliability of the bar exam and the decision consistency of the Pass/Fail decisions for candidates on the Bar Exam.
Program Review and Audit
The process of completing an external audit of your assessment program can provide meaningful insight into the strengths, weaknesses and opportunities that exist with your assessment program. ACS has worked with organizations and agencies in the education and credentialing communities to provide summative and formative evaluation relying on industry and accreditation standards supplemented by literature on best practices.
