NCEES Standard Setting Study

[Roger5912]

BPELSG ANNOUNCED FEBRUARY 8, 2013 - NCEES SEEKS LICENSED PROFESSIONAL SURVEYORS TO VOLUNTEER AND PARTICIPATE IN A STANDARD-SETTING STUDY FOR THE PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF SURVEYING (PS) EXAM

NCEES is currently seeking volunteers who are licensed professional surveyors to participate in a standard-setting study for the Principles and Practice of Surveying (PS) exam. To qualify, volunteers must have taken and passed the NCEES PS exam.

Selected volunteers will review and rate the difficulty of items that will be included on the updated PS exam. The volunteers’ responses will help NCEES determine the passing score for the PS exam.

The standard-setting study will take place May 17–18, 2013, in Clemson, South Carolina. Travel and lodging expenses will be paid by NCEES.

To volunteer for the study, please complete this short survey (about 2 minutes). Your answers will help us ensure that the standard-setting study panel members meet certain criteria required by NCEES policy and are demographically diverse.

Please go to the BPELSG website http://www.bpelsg.ca.gov/for specific information.

This is a great opurtuninty to a part of the national exam. We need Ca representives to participate. They are great hosts, feed you well, and the only upfront expense is for the car rental from either Altanta or Greenville.

Roger and RAM are correct, this is very important and current participation for the national surveying examinations by California land surveyors stands at TWO...yes,...TWO!

Anyone licensed in California that passed the PS exam (first offered in California in 2003) is eligible to participate in this study.
