Software Skills Testing.
A wide variety of Software Skills tests are available. These tests cover
current and earlier software products such as:
-
Microsoft Word
-
Microsoft Excel
-
Microsoft PowerPoint
-
Corel WordPerfect
-
Lotus 1-2-3
-
Microsoft Windows
-
And many more software products
All tests are performance based. This means that rather than answering multiple
choice or other types of questions, examinees are instead provided with
an interactive simulation of the software products and asked to perform
functions as if they were using the real software.
Application simulations allow test takers to answer skills testing questions
by performing tasks in any way that the actual software
allows - with no need to buy the actual software license.
An examinee’s ability to perform functions correctly will determine whether he or she answers questions correctly or incorrectly. Separate tests are available
for different releases (versions) of software products (you may have separate tests
for Microsoft Word 6, Microsoft Word 7, and Microsoft Word 97, Word 2000 or XP for example).
Evaluating Software Skills Test Scores
It is recommended that test administrators establish their own guidelines for evaluating scores since standards for proficiency often vary from region to region, organization to organization, and from year to year.
In addition, other tests may be required, along with references and interviews, to predict reliably whether examinees will perform proficiently in a specified work environment.
For example, an applicant for a secretarial position requiring skills in Microsoft Word might best be tested not only for skills with Word, but for typing speed and accuracy, business English, clerical skills such as filing, checking, and coding, and other secretarial skills.
