The exam items are reviewed by ICT industry subject matter
professionals who hold the given credential and in partnership
with third-party exam development expert professionals who
"scrub" the items a final time to ensure relevancy and quality
standards. Then the items are assigned to unique exam forms
and are balanced against the JTA.
DCDC Standard-Setting Study
• Edward Grinius, DCDC, RTPM
• Erkan Gunal, RCDD, DCDC, NTS
• Joe Harris, RCDD, DCDC, RTPM
• Adam Marsh, RCDD, DCDC, ESS, WD
• Pat McMurray, RCDD, DCDC, NTS, OSP
• Laszlo Szekernyes, RCDD, DCDC, NTS
• Brian Waller, RCDD, DCDC, NTS
The exam forms are validated through a process called "Standard
Setting" by the volunteer teams who serve on the RCSC, ICT subject
matter industry professionals who hold the given credential and in
partnership with third-party expert psychometrician professionals.
Each item is rated a level of importance and difficulty. From this
the psychometrician analyzes the data and a passing score
is established.
As you can see, a great deal of work goes into the BICSI credential
exam development process. Thank you to all who participated in
helping to move the ICT profession forward.
