Certification & Licensure
Certification and licensure is an important application of educational measurement used to protect the public by holding professionals to minimum standards within their respective fields. The assessments used in certification and licensure have some of the highest stakes in the measurement community, and both leverage and are influenced by NCME’s output. The purpose of this NCME SIGIMIE is to a) create space at the NCME conference for certification and licensure organizations to share their current work and identify common concerns, and b) provide a clear connection point for experts throughout NCME membership to understand current research opportunities in the space.
