Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The work of the job analysis panel and the content outline development committee laid the foundation for the first assistant certifying examination. The content outline is used throughout the examination development process by item writers, item reviewers, and the examination review committee, as well as during the test assembly processed. Because of the work of the job analysis panel and the content outline development committee, the certifying examination program for first assistants is both valid and legally defensible. A job analysis and a revision of the content outline based on that job analysis should be conducted every 3 to 5 years to ensure the examination continues to accurately reflect the current state of the job of a first assistant.
