Description:

Did you pass the CDT recently? 

Your expertise is needed to evaluate the level of difficulty for the Spring 2019 CDT® exams. This is part of the process of determining a passing score for the exam. Participants will receive training on how to evaluate the level of difficulty, review each test question and provide their insight on if qualified candidates should be able to answer each item correctly, then reconvene to discuss the difficulty level of each question. This volunteer opportunity includes working as part of a team of 8-13 professionals in the field, as well as independent work.

How long will this take?
Time Commitment: 9-10 total hours during the week of June 3, 2019.

Must be available for two (2) calls/virtual meetings of three (3) hours each during the first week of June 2019 with additional time (3-4 hours) to re-take the CDT exam in a confidential, virtual setting and provide feedback/ratings on level of difficulty while completing the exam.

Training will be provided during the first of two (2) calls/virtual meetings.
