Pass Point Setting

Overview:

This one-day course presents participants with a legally defensible process, which can be used to set pass points on a variety of selection instruments. Topics will include the use of exam statistics, the establishment of Minimal Acceptable Competence (MAC) levels, and the inclusion of appropriate legal considerations.  The course will introduce several methods of establishing and modifying pass points for all scoring formats.  Participants will complete hands-on activities and use actual exam data to set pass points and discuss pass point setting.

Personnel analysts, managers, or individuals responsible for the development and/or administration of employment testing and selection programs.
