Background and Responsibilities

In 2023, the Testing Center became part of the Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching (CELT).  As part of its integration, a Testing Center Advisory Board (TCAB) was formed to assist Testing Center staff in an advisory capacity.  Responsibilities for each board member include:

• review and input on Testing Center policies and practices
• serve as a liaison to their respective college/unit
• provide input on student and faculty training and resource development
• provide input on supported assessment technologies
• general service delivery and experience improvements
• advocate for Testing Center use among peers

Member Information

The Testing Center Manager will solicit membership for Board participation from current instructor users or users within the last year.  A term for each representative is three years, with a rotation each academic year of three members on and three members off.  The Chair is the co-facilitator with the Testing Center Manager of each board meeting.  TCAB meets at least twice per semester, with more meetings as the group decides.
