Language Assessment Standards

Language Assessment Standards are guidelines that ensure language tests and evaluations are fair, reliable, valid, and meaningful. They help create assessments that accurately measure a person’s language abilities across speaking, listening, reading, and writing. These standards promote consistency in test design, scoring, and interpretation, ensuring results are dependable and fair for all test-takers. In essence, they aim to produce assessments that genuinely reflect a person’s language skills and support fair decision-making in educational, professional, or other settings.
