VALUE & BENEFITS
The CCTC and NES worked closely with California educators to design the CSET. Every decision reflected several goals, including the following:
- To develop tests specifically for credential candidates based on the unique needs and requirements of classroom teaching in California
- To develop subject matter requirements to guide both the credential program and the examinations
- To align tests with California student standards and curriculum frameworks
- To provide for the repeated and significant participation of California teachers and teacher educators throughout the test development process
- To prevent bias and ensure diversity in testing materials for the program
- To provide support materials to examinees to help them prepare for the tests and interpret their results
- To provide support materials to teacher education programs to help them relate test results to their instructional programs
- To develop tests those are equitable to all examinees
- To offer all examinees uniform and positive testing experiences
- To provide California state policymakers with information to guide program and policy modifications
