What is an assessment assistant?

Assessment Assistants are professionals who support the administration, scoring, and management of assessments, tests, or evaluations in educational or organizational settings. They help prepare testing materials, supervise test-takers, ensure testing protocols are followed, and may assist in data entry or reporting of results. Their work is essential for maintaining the integrity and accuracy of assessment processes, and they often collaborate with teachers, administrators, or assessment coordinators.
