Specialist in Educational Assessment

An educational assessment specialist designs and studies the tools that measure what students are learning. You write and review test questions, build rubrics, set scoring guidelines, analyze results, and report what the data says about students, classrooms, schools, or entire programs. You work with teachers, curriculum designers, school and district leaders, and sometimes testing companies. Your goal is to make sure assessments are fair, reliable, and useful for improving teaching rather than only assigning scores.
