The CTECS model for designing a technical assessment system involves following a step-by-step process that assures valid, defensible, psychometrically sound tests. It begins with the identification of a Business/ Industry/ Education Technical Advisor Committee and ends with a fully operational, field tested system. CTECS believes that assessment tools must be aligned to a set of measurable standards or competencies and that items must meet rigorous quality guidelines. Each activity is conducted with these overriding criteria in mind. CTECS provides the level of service that works best for each client.

You can depend on our experience to:

• train your staff to design and develop your assessment system,

• facilitate your staff's work as they design and develop the system, or

• develop the entire system for you.

Regardless of the level of service you choose, the result will be a practical, cost-effective solution to your assessment challenges.

While every assessment system is unique, the development begins with our working with you to answer the questions on the CTECS Planning Checklist.
