Test Construction Workshop, July 16-18, 2007 - CETE/OSU* Constructing valid, reliable assessments (tests) of job specific knowledge and skill is critical to effective and defensible human resource practice. Knowledge and skill assessments are used for many personnel-related functions, including . Individual certification and licensure, . Personnel selection and placement, and . Training needs assessment or diagnosis. A carefully-designed systematic approach to test construction maximizes return on investment and contributes to candidate satisfaction and motivation. Poorly designed assessments often yield erroneous and damaging results, leading to employee or candidate dissatisfaction, ineffective credentialing decisions and possible exposure to litigation. Because practice or job analysis serve as the foundation to any occupationally-specific test development process, our test development workshop builds on information gathered from such analysis procedures. Our workshops are designed to complement multiple methods of occupational or practice analysis, from simple to complex.
