(More customer reviews)Do you conduct training in the workplace? Do you measure the training's effectiveness using testing? Do you design certication exams? If so, this is the book for you!
Criterion-Referenced Tests (CRTs), unlike the similarly complicated sounding Norm-Referenced Tests (NRTs), are used to measure individual competencies in skills or knowledge objectives. That is, they're used to determine whether a person "makes the cut" or doesn't. Individual's are not ranked against each other in a CRT exam, and there is no limit to the number of individuals who can succeed or fail. This type of exam is particularly well-suited to measure the learning (at Kirkpatrick's Level II) that took place during training.
All of this is eplored in a straightfoward manner as you are stepped through the entire process of designing competancy exams, including the statistics you need with plenty of examples.
We used to pay lip-service to seeing what our trainees had learned in our professional classes - now we quantify it precisely using this text.
