PARCC - Partnership for Assessment for Readiness for College and Careers

The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) is a consortium of states working together to develop a common set of K-12 assessments in English and math anchored in what it takes to be ready for college and careers. These new K-12 assessments will build a pathway to college and career readiness by the end of high school, mark students’ progress toward this goal from 3rd grade up, and provide teachers with timely information to inform instruction and provide student support. The PARCC assessments will be ready for states to administer during the 2014-15 school year.

SEG Measurement and its team of psychometrians are involved in the development of the PARCC assessments with the Council for Aid to Education (CAE), including alignment, item writing, validation and field testing.  Please contact us at info@segmeasurement for more information.
