Testing is a technique for obtaining information in an organized, reliable, and valid manner.
In an educational setting, testing is designed primarily to measure knowledge and abilities and is not intended to help people with mental or emotional problems. Each campus will designate a person to coordinate Testing Programs. Tests will be administered by adequately trained and qualified personnel. Each college has flexibility in the choice of individual test instruments. Tests will be utilized in an advisory capacity and should not be used as the sole criterion to restrict students from courses or programs.
