Just a reminder that the Call for Papers for the International Testing Commission Conference (to be held July 19-21, 2010 in Hong Kong) closes on December 1.  I had the opportunity to attend the ITC Conference in 2007 and would suggest it to anyone interested in increasing their understanding of issues related to the globalization of assessment. There are multiple considerations that emerge when a testing program is implemented internationally with challenges ranging from the practical to the psychometric to the legal. As the need for assessment programs that be used in multinational contexts grows, so does the necessity for assessment professionals to understand the complexities that come along with the territory.
