Testing

The criterion-referenced approach to testing is to be used throughout the training system. This is also known as mastery testing. This approach to testing ensures that training builds competencies. A criterion test focuses on the application of knowledge and skills required to perform job-related tasks. Enabling Learning Objectives (ELOs) build toward Terminal Learning Objectives (TLOs). TLOs relate to job tasks. Therefore, tests must relate to job tasks and must be performance-oriented. All tests must also be face and content valid.
