Benefits
ExamDeveloper is the ideal choice for building high-quality
assessments
Developing a high-quality exam used for employment decisions is an expensive and time-consuming undertaking. The availability of
Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) often limits the amount of exam development that
an organization can undertake. The problem is exaggerated with face-to-face development
meetings.
Creating an assessment that withstands legal scrutiny can easily exceed $50,000 using face-to-face meetings.
Exam Design’s ExamDeveloper software helps reduce or eliminate the need for in-person
meetings and streamlines the development process to save time and money while developing
a valid
examination.
- Reduce cost- The typical cost of an in-person meeting to develop a high-stakes exam
is between $10,000 and $12,000. Most exams require a minimum of three meetings
to complete the process.
This represents a substantial cost for any organization.
Using ExamDeveloper to eliminate just one of the in-person meetings pays for the
annual licensing fee. However, ExamDeveloper has built-in collaboration tools eliminate the amount for
in-person meetings to develop the exam.
- Save time with less travel-
Travel for SMEs in different geographic locations is becoming quite costly. ExamDeveloper allows experts
to collaborate without taking the time to travel to another location
and at a time convenient for them.
- Receive expert guidance-
The software has built-in expert consultation to
assist anyone in developing quality-hiring assessments. Every step of the process is clearly
described so that even novices
can create reliable measures of job performance. With ExamAdvisor, users receive psychometric guidance for improving the quality of every question.
- Increased security-
ExamDeveloper has
been audited by third-party internet security consultants and has been shown to
guard against known internet security vulnerabilities. The software
allows organizations to set the system privileges for each user to limit access
to the system. As a result, your examinations remain safe.
- Increase SME participation-
Organizations using SMEs can find it challenging to attract
and retain assistance
for their exam development. This is especially difficult when face-to-face
meetings require the SMEs to be away from their job and family. ExamDeveloper allows
a greater number of SMEs to participate by allowing the work to be done remotely.
- Quicker completion time-
Many hands make light work. Greater SME participation reduces
the amount of time needed to complete the project and allows your organization to
focus on other strategic activities. ExamDeveloper also creates, formats, and publishes exam forms in a fraction
of the time using automated tools.
- Lower participant burden-
Having more SMEs involved in the exam development decreases the work needed from
each individual, thus increasing their
satisfaction with the process. This makes SME participation in future development efforts
more likely.
- Better quality-
With more SMEs participating, the exam gains credibility
across the profession or industry. Therefore, it is less likely that the exam lacks essential information.
Expert Guidance Anytime
A major benefit of ExamDeveloper is that it mimics exactly what occurs during in-person
meetings led by a testing expert. The software contains tutorials that guide users
through every step of the process.
The main difference between ExamDeveloper and other
software packages is that it was developed from the ground-up by testing experts,
not software developers. As a result, it includes built-in psychometric guidance
every step of the way.
Exam Design is committed to help you design the best examination possible. As a result,
we also provide packages with consultation by a testing expert included in the licensing
fee. The result is a high-quality examination without the high cost.
