Purpose of the Survey
• Need for highly trained professionals in educational measurement, assessment, and psychometrics
– NCLB mandated testing and educational accountability
– Increase in licensure and certification testing
• Brennan & Plake (1991) and Patelis, Kolen, & Parshall (1997): academic and nonacademic organizations have problems recruiting; low supply of qualified candidates at entry- and mid-level
• No studies have examined salary
– APA, SIOP, ASA conduct these surveys
