Prometric Continues to Deliver Exams for Keystone Client of 25 Years
Prometric®, a trusted provider of market-leading test development and delivery solutions, announced it has entered into a 10-year agreement with Educational Testing Service (ETS), a leader in the education and assessment space.
The new agreement means Prometric – which has had a long-term relationship with ETS since 1992 – will continue to deliver ETS flagship brands such as GRE®, TOEFL® and the Praxis® exams in its extensive global testing network.
From its inception in 1947, ETS has grown to be the world’s largest private nonprofit educational testing and assessment organization. Its teams of education experts, researchers and assessment developers believe that, through learning, people can improve their situations in life and make incredible contributions to the world. They also believe that by designing assessments with industry-leading insight, rigorous research and an uncompromising commitment to quality, they can advance equity and help education and workplace communities make informed decisions about people and programs.
“We are absolutely delighted with this extension of our agreement with ETS and its long-term commitment to our business,” said Charles Kernan, president and CEO of Prometric. “We look forward to continuing our tradition of success with this most valued, tenured client to drive innovation in testing and assessment while supporting its programs with the same high levels of operational excellence and service.”
“For a quarter century, Prometric has done an outstanding job of delivering our computer-based assessments worldwide,” said ETS President Walt MacDonald. “This agreement extends that relationship and allows us to continue fulfilling our mission to help advance quality and equity in education for people worldwide.”
