Educational Testing provides support for those
undertaking training in, and for training providers of, the Certificate
of Competence in Educational Testing (CCET) (Level A). Developed by the
British Psychological Society (BPS) the CCET aims to meet a need for
standards for the use of tests in education in the UK, to encourage
responsible test use by psychologists and non-psychologists alike.
Written by the designers of the certificate and endorsed by the BPS's Steering Committee on Test Standards, Educational Testing is the only book of its kind available:
- Covers the 71 elements of the CCET in detail and acts as a ‘course text’ for those in training
- Describes each core competence
- Provides model answers and examples
- Offers
an indication of the range of ways in which the core competences may be
assessed by the Assessor, based upon the existing BPS Guidance for Assessors document
- Appendices
offer guidance on BPS Standards, a glossary of technical terms, useful
web-sites and on-line resources and Test Publishers Addresses.
