International Test Commission Conference 2026
Testing for good: Using tests to benefit individuals and society
This is an adaptation from the Māori saying:
Mā tōu rou, mā taku rourou ka ora te iwi.
With your food basket and my food basket the people will thrive.
For almost 50 years, International Test Commission (ITC) has contributed enormously to promoting effective, valid and fair testing and assessment practices around the world to benefit society. The next ITC conference in Auckland (New Zealand) also aims to make a difference in equity and inclusion when making decisions or comparisons based on tests and questionnaires in a changing assessment context.
The conference program will allow researchers and professionals to know innovative research, enroll in short-course on “hot topics” in assessment, and take part in “business-academia” activities to connect industry with researchers.
