Assessment and admission testing and placement
The Declaration of Bologna and succeeding agreements commit universities and institutions of higher education to greater compatibility with each other across Europe. More than ever, academic institutions need to manage their resources effectively to meet the new challenges, while continuing to impart excellent education. This is where ETS Europe can help.
We provide tools to help universities gather reliable and valid evidence. Using externally validated instruments, universities can show compatibility and meet requirements. Moreover, by outsourcing such non-core functions as the development of these tools, they can continue to focus on their critical functions in education and research. Since ETS Europe is present across various countries in Europe, our understanding of local cultures makes it possible for us to adapt our tools to accommodate any necessary cultural, social or economic factors.
The ETS Europe portfolio of assessment tools includes:
- Tools for instructional evaluation and for self assessment,
- Tools for outcomes assessments,
- Tools used for admission.
Training and consulting
ETS Europe works closely with a number of organisations to help enhance quality in education, training and professional development. For instance, we work with ministries of education to support educational reform programmes, and to design national exams and national assessments. Our network of experts and trained consultants across Europe provides excellent localised support for educational development.
