Test standards, test user qualification and certification

This article is about how to ensure competence in testing and hence ensure testing is carried out ethically, safely and effectively. The main focus for this chapter is on testing in employment settings. I will review the changing relationship between test providers and test users in the field of employment testing that have arisen from technology developments. I will review and current standards and guidelines relating to test use, test quality and assessment delivery. Finally, I'll describe what the European Federation of Psychologists' Associations (EFPA) is doing along with other international developments.
