Key domain experts speaking: Rob Bergevoet

My name is Rob Bergevoet and I have been active in the field of digital testing for 10 years. I started in a support role for internal training programmes. For several years now, I have been Customer Success Manager at Optimum Assessment. In this role, I make sure that the testing products and - in particular - the services provided are seamless for the customer. The aim: to strengthen the client's assessment where possible.   

Testing is a chain process

Personally, I see the testing process as a chain of interacting parts. Often, when you think of a test, you only think of what the candidate experiences during his or her examination. But the process leading up to it can be very extensive. A good tool supports this entire test logistics and all the administrative work involved, such as candidate registration.

Secure and intuitive collaboration

As a user of testing software, you want the tool to work intuitively and securely. The more accessible the software, the more you tend to stay within the tooling. Moreover, an intuitive tool with a high level of security not only ensures that collaboration within those chains is fine and efficient, but also that it is secure.

Big data within testing

Using a good exam tool will also help you build up a wealth of relevant information. Among other things, through the examinations you take. This data can then be converted into a qualitative and quantitative analysis of both the construction process and the test result. For clients with a small test construction team, such analyses can serve as a guide in improving the quality of exams. For larger organisations that have their own test expertise bets, the tool can be a verification tool to back up your own analysis. Of course you pay attention to content quality, but when monitoring the quality of your test, statistical verification based on big data is a must!
