The challenge of student evaluation in the area of vocational and technical education is viewed by the author as being highly related to the problem of measurement. The purpose of this paper is to review some of the instruments currently used to measure student attainments and/or attitudes. Following a discussion of general aspects (amount of testing, level of test difficulty, and test administration) which should be considered before embarking on an evaluation program, the author provides a review of some commonly used measures, divided into achievement and aptitude tests, and interest tests. For situations for which one of the available measures is not appropriate, it may be necessary to develop a test locally. Detailed guidelines are offered to encourage this endeavor in the second half of the document.
