Once an examiner has completed the enrollment process, access is granted to the Study Dashboard. The Study Dashboard is our online hub, which we use to keep examiners up to date on projects. It is also a place to find important resources to support examiners during each project. Examiners will recruit participants and work with the Research Team to learn to use the portal and to manage project assignments.
Potential participants are to complete the Demographic Information Form. Examiners can share this form with potential participants by copying and pasting the link into an email or text to adult participants, or the parents/guardians of participants 17 and under. Each form will be reviewed by the Research Team to assess eligibility, who will confirm with the listed examiner if the participant is approved for testing, and if approved, provide you with and Examinee ID and a Test Event ID for each participant. The Examiner will be required to participate in some training before administering any test for a project.
Before testing any participants, a completed Consent Form is required for an adult participant, or a completed Parent/Guardian Consent Form and an Assent form for participants 17 years and younger.
Each Field Research project will have its own Project Reference Guide containing important information on the studyt.
Once an assessment is completed, examiners should review their work to ensure that they have completed all required fields and accurately recorded all required data. Once an assessment is completed, data is reviewed to ensure that all administration rules were followed and to ensure that the data are usable. Payment is issued by the Pearson Research Team to both the examiner and participant.
