CLEP Fall 1985 College Administrators' Workshop.
College Entrance Examination Board, New York, NY.
This document contains the agenda for an Administrator's Workshop given by the College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) of the College Board. Included are an update on CLEP activities, a section on reaching out to faculty, and a section on reaching out to adult students. Covered in the update on CLEP activities are results of 1984 workshop surveys on: (1) new test titles; (2) local microcomputer scoring of CLEP examinations; (3) dates for the General Examination in English Composition with Essay; and (4) proposed change in the score scale for CLEP Subject Examinations. A report on test development includes a discussion of the CLEP Technical Manual, a table of five-year plans for redeveloping examinations, and a description of the Test Information Guides. Guidelines for grading the optional free-response section of the College Composition Examination are provided. Outreach to faculty involves providing information through a series of seminars described here through a review of the agenda. Reaching out to adult students includes a business campaign, a program for companies employing potential students, and a description of the availability of College Board assistance. Addresses for regional offices are included. (LMO)
