IN CONJUNCTION WITH ITS RESEARCH, ETS DEVELOPS EDUCATIONAL ASSESSMENTS FOR USE BY STATES IN K-12 ASSESSMENT, FOR COLLEGE ADMISSIONS AND THE TRANSITION FROM HIGH SCHOOL TO COLLEGE, FOR GRADUATE AND BUSINESS SCHOOL ADMISSIONS, AND FOR USE IN MEASURING KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS, PROMOTING LEARNING AND PERFORMANCE, AND SUPPORTING EDUCATION AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT.

ASSESSMENT ADMINISTRATION & DELIVERYETS PROVIDES TEST ADMINISTRATION AND DELIVERY SERVICES. ETS ADMINISTERS MORE THAN 20 MILLIONS OF ASSESSMENTS ANNUALLY IN 180 COUNTRIES AT MORE THAN 9,000 OF LOCATIONS GLOBALLY. ETS DOES NOT OWN OR OPERATE ANY TEST CENTERS; INSTEAD ETS ENGAGES INDEPENDENT 3RD PARTY SERVICES PROVIDERS TO ADMINISTER AND DELIVER ASSESSMENTS AROUND THE WORLD. ASSESSMENT ADMINISTRATION STAFF ARE SUBJECT TO A RIGOROUS TRAINING AND APPROVAL PROCESS PRIOR TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF AN ASSESSMENT. FOR EXAMPLE, TEST CENTER ADMINISTRATORS MUST DEMONSTRATE THE ABILITY TO PERFORM PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES, SUCH AS ESTABLISHING A SECURE TESTING ENVIRONMENT AND MANAGING THE DAY-TO-DAY TESTING ACTIVITIES PRIOR TO ADMINISTRATION OF AN ASSESSMENT. THESE ACTIVITIES PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR THE ADMINISTRATION AND DELIVERY OF GROUP ASSESSMENTS IN NUMEROUS FORMATS AND USING A VARIETY OF MEANS. SINCE 2020 REMOTE TESTING SOLUTIONS HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED WHEREBY CANDIDATES CAN TAKE THE TEST AT HOME RATHER THAN IN A TEST CENTER. HUMAN PROCTORS MONITOR TEST TAKERS' ACTIVITY "REMOTELY" THROUGHOUT THE TEST TO ENSURE NO INDIVIDUAL GAINS AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE. THESE AT HOME SOLUTIONS CONTINUE TO DEMAND SIGNIFICANT HUMAN INVOLVEMENT FROM THE U.S. BECAUSE THE DEVELOPMENT, SCORING AND PROCTORING OF THESE REMOTE TESTS ARE PERFORMED BY INDIVIDUALS LOCATED IN THE U.S.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesOct 1, 2021 – Sep 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$147M
