APA Standards in Testing

We recently completed a project for a client where we needed to heed the APA standards for testing, the world's leading standards in the field.  We were quite successful in our endeavor and will definitely communicate more about the Speex instruments and their 'measuring up' to these standards next year - link to this article of a SA commentary on the standards ( https://www.dropbox.com/s/2a5th9m9ktq1p0n/APAStandardsTestinginSA.pdf?dl=0 ) REST WELL!

IMPORTANT INFO FLASH: USE OF COMPINDEX

Dear all:

Please take note of the most recent amendment to the Employment Equity Act and role of the HPCSA in the certification of psychological tests.  COMPINDEX is currently implicated as it was not developed to be a psychological test.  It is currently unclear how the act will be implemented, as according to the Health Professions Act the HPCSA only has the mandate to regulate psychological tests.   We are aware of interest groups that are working towards following legal processes to temporary set aside the clause until such time that clarity is obtained on the issue.  To be on the safe side currently and until such time the amendment is set aside or clarity is obtained on the mandate and role of legal entities that should enforce the act, further use of the instrument should be reconsidered as it may constitute a transgression of the act.  Rather contact us at AssessmentWorld in order to discuss alternatives (Jacques: metrics@wol.co.za).
