Assessment Consortia

Assessment consortia are collaborative groups of schools, districts, or organizations that work together to develop and share assessment tools and strategies. Their goal is to create consistent, fair, and reliable ways to measure student performance across multiple sites, making it easier to evaluate progress and improve education quality. By pooling resources and expertise, consortia help ensure assessments are aligned with educational standards and support data-driven decision-making, ultimately benefiting students, teachers, and policymakers.
