The proposed changes would require a test publisher and a State to describe how it would determine that a test administrator has the ability and facilities to keep its ATB tests secure against disclosure or improper release. The proposed changes would require a test administrator or State to describe how it would identify test irregularities, describe proposed corrective actions, and its decertification process. The proposed regulations would require that the Agreement between the Department and the test publisher or State, as applicable, would be updated with the proposed changes in this Subpart.
