Test coordinator Renee Bridges says the purpose of the training is to make sure all test administrators know testing protocol.  “It’s very important to make sure that they understand test security, they understand the importance of this test to make sure that the test is administered in the strictest possible setting to make sure we get good valid results” says Bridges.

Test administrators reviewed how to accounting for all test documents and answer documents, how to administer the Georgia graduation test, security measures, and how to handle any irregularities that arise.

Teachers say the training was thorough and they’re confident the graduation testing will run smoothly.
