FAQ: Getting started with our high-stakes testing platform

It’s not easy to build and deliver a high-quality exam like a professional certification test or nationwide educational assessment. We can guide you every step of the way.

How is ASC’s online testing platform different from others?

Online testing platforms are enterprise software systems designed to manage large-scale and high-stakes examinations for organizations that need more than basic MCQ exam software or an LMS.  Examples are a civil service selection department that exists to administer pre-employment exams or a certification board that exists to deliver certification exams. The software is designed with advanced functionality necessary for these organizations, including item banking, complex test construction, security layers, and modern psychometrics like adaptive testing. They also include modules for examinee management, scheduling, psychometric reports, and proctoring. Anyone can build an MCQ quiz engine; there are only a handful of professional-grade enterprise assessment platforms like FastTest.

Is your testing platform secure?

Highly secure. We have achieved SOC2 Type 2 security accreditation from an independent third party auditor. Users are provided with specific roles and content-based access. You can turn on additional features like multi-factor authentication. Examinees can be required to have unique one-time passwords, lockdown browser, and activity tracking. You govern time limits, re-take access, time/date window, and much more. Add on live remote proctoring for an additional layer.

How long does it take to migrate to FastTest?

This depends on the size of your item bank, number of tests, custom functionality, and other aspects. It’s easy to import a few hundred items, assemble a test, and publish with our online proctoring. That can be done in a day. But if you want custom reports, integrations into your database, or other enhancements, we need to talk. You also need to consider the migration on your end – if you publish on our platform, you’ll need to update all your documentation like candidate instructions!

What is the pricing structure?

We aim to be transparent in pricing. Use of FastTest starts at $5950 per year. There is a per-test-delivered fee that depends on volume as well as whether you use proctoring services. We also offer enterprise contracts with flat annual costs, and add-ons like Credicycle. Consulting services are typically priced per project, such as performing a job task analysis or modified-Angoff study.

Do you offer APIs and SSO integrations?

Yes, our platform is built with a modern API architecture. We have established specific APIs such as registering candidates and sending scores. You can embed our tests in your fully branded platform. You can also set up SSO.

How can I get started? Do you offer a free trial?

Request a demo from one of our product experts. If your organization is qualified to leverage next-gen online assessment software, we can provide a free trial account as well as pricing. Our consultants can also meet with you to advise on the test development process.

Can you help me develop the test?

Yes! We frequently work organizations that need a hand in developing high-quality assessments. We focus on high-stakes tests like professional certifications or university admissions, including topics like job analysis, test design, standard setting, statistical analysis, equating, and adaptive testing. We do not work with low-quality assessments like a happiness survey. Psychometric consulting is the necessary work to develop high-quality exams that meet international standards such as AERA/APA/NCME or NCCA. These require complex studies like Job Task Analysis, standard setting studies like the Angoff method, or machine-learning analytics like item response theory.  If you don’t have a psychometrician in-house, you will need to hire consultants. Our team will work to understand your requirements, which can differ based on the type of exam, and recommend a cost-effective plan to achieve your goals
