Standard 11.1 Prior to the adoption and use of a published test, the test user should study and evaluate the materials provided by the test developer. Of particular importance are those that summarize the test’s purposes, specify the procedures for test administration, define the intended populations of test takers, and discuss the score interpretations for which validity and reliability data are available.
![Page 10: An O*NET Academy Briefing Whole Person Assessment Using the O*NET Career Exploration Tools](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568145e9550346895db2ea01/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
