Revised Code of Fair Testing Practices in Education

FYI - the Joint Committe on Testing Practices (JTCP) has released a Revised Code of Fair Testing Practices in Education. The code (in pdf format) can downloaded by visiting the JTCP page and clicking on the appropriate link.

As described on the JTCP page:

• The Code of Fair Testing Practices in Education was initially developed by JCTP in 1988 as a statement of the primary obligations that professionals who develop or use educational tests have toward test takers. The Code has been revised to be consistent with the 1999 Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing. The Code provides guidance to professionals who develop or use educational tests.
