Appendix C: Overview of ICTS Tests

This section of the Faculty Guide contains a summary of the characteristics of each ICTS test, including certificate information, the score scale, the test subareas and item structure, administration and scoring information, and the scoring rubric (for tests with constructed-response assignments). Additionally, each summary provides Internet links to the Web pages providing access to the test framework, framework correlation table, score report information, and study guide.
