EIPA Test Administrator Application

Test Administrator's Roles and Responsibilities

Test administrators must adhere to the instructions as described in the test administrator’s manual. In order to achieve valid, fair, reliable test results for any standardized test, the test must be administered in an identical, consistent, "standard", manner by all test administrators at every tests site.
Test administrators are responsible to maintain the security of all testing materials and content, protect the secrecy of login credentials and passwords, and protect test candidates’ privacy.
Test administrators must conduct themselves in a professional manner during all interactions and communication with test candidates.
Test administrators must allot enough time to prepare the test site, check-in test candidates, conduct pre-test duties, administer the test, conduct post-test duties (if applicable), gather and lock all test materials, candidate test files or paperwork (performance test) on test dates. Performance test administrators must also upload test files within 24 hours after administering the test.

Test Equipment and Test Site Considerations

The majority of applicants apply to host only one of the two EIPA tests, either the performance test or the written test. There are some test administrators who provide both the performance and written test. Before deciding which test(s) you wish to administer, review the following equipment lists and test site considerations. The lists are provided to give applicants a brief overview, and should not be considered an exhaustive list.

Camcorder/video camera to record the test candidate Phones may not be used to record the test. Computer with a USB port and HDMI port A VGA port can be used if an HDMI port is not available. Adobe Acrobat Reader DC software is required to fill out the electronic paperwork. A large monitor to display the test videos	All test computers must have the QuestionMark Secure Player installed. Test computers must be connected to a secure private network (no exceptions). All tests must be administered on a private, unique user password-protected network.

Test Site Considerations for the Performance Test	Test Site Considerations for the Written Test
The test kit must be kept in a locked storage area when not being used. Access to the locked storage area must limited to EIPA approved LTAs (no exceptions). The room used for testing must be private, uncluttered and distraction free. Bright lighting in the room is required. The wall used as the background when recording must be uncluttered and a solid color. A large solid colored cloth may be hung behind the test candidate if needed.	The test environment must be quiet and interruption free. The proctor must stay in the room with the test candidates during testing. The number of test seats offered during a test can be determined by the number of computers in the room. Some proctors only have 1 computer, offering only one test seat, and others use a computer lab and can offer multiple seats.
