SSAT Item Writing Workshop
Date & Time
Saturday, September 21, 2024, 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Description

Are you interested in being part of our exam creation process? Are you an educator with an English, Latin, or Mathematics background? We are recruiting item writers from the Boston area to join our team of Subject Matter Experts who develop items for the Quantitative, Reading, and Verbal sections of the SSAT, and we would love to meet you! To apply, please email Holli Murphy, Senior Project Manager for the Assessment Development team at hmurphy@enrollment.org for more information and directions. Admission to this workshop is by application and invitation only; no walk-ins will be admitted. All participants will be required to complete a non-disclosure agreement and a thorough review of preliminary training materials. Additionally, we expect candidates to complete a brief pre-workshop assignment, which will be reviewed anonymously during the session as a training exercise. All item writing candidates are further asked to remain active item writers for at least one item writing cycle beyond the workshop. Only candidates with the requisite content backgrounds (English, Latin, or Mathematics) will be considered. Accepted candidates will be compensated with a $300 honorarium for workshop attendance and completion of the pre-workshop requirements. Future assignments are compensated competitively. A certificate of attendance will be provided for attendees wishing to utilize this experience for professional development credit as their institution allows.
