Educational Testing Service (ETS) is a private educational testing and measurement organization. It builds assessments based on research and a focus on quality. ETS develops, administers, and scores over 50 million tests annually in over 180 countries.

They offer research-based assessments to help people demonstrate their proficiency in various areas. ETS assessments can evaluate student performance, assess program effectiveness, and improve curriculum and learning outcomes. Some of their assessments include:

ETS Proficiency Profile: Measures college-level skills in reading, writing, mathematics, critical thinking, humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. Colleges and universities use this test to evaluate general education outcomes and provide data for accreditation, strategic planning, and more.

ETS Major Field Tests: Measures undergraduate and MBA students’ critical knowledge and understanding in their academic major. These tests are available in multiple disciplines, including business, humanities, social sciences, and STEM. They help evaluate students’ ability to analyze and solve problems, understand relationships, and interpret material from their major field.

• TOEFL: Measures language skills in an academic context.
• Praxis: Measures the knowledge and skills needed for the classroom.
• TOEIC: Measures English communication skills for the workplace.
• GRE: Measures skills for admission to graduate and professional programs.

The Educational Testing Service (or ETS) is the world’s largest private educational testing and measurement organization.
