So how do we do it?
Versant’s artificial intelligence engine has had the equivalent of thousands of hours of training. It bases its decisions on huge datasets of completed past test responses and their results. The automated scoring system can now mark tests more accurately than human examiners - and without any unconscious bias. It guarantees fair and consistent scores in every test we deliver.
Testing 10,000 students annually is a massive undertaking, but the Versant testing system makes administering the test so efficient that we no longer worry about our ability to scale the effort.
