FACTA MISSION

The mission of FACTA is to enhance professional growth and

communication among test administrators employed at regionally

accredited postsecondary institutions in the State of Florida.

FACTA actively advocates and supports the National College

Testing Association’s (NCTA) Professional Standards and

Guidelines. Our mission is accomplished by working in

partnerships with the Florida Department of Education

(FLDOE), the Florida Board of Governors (BOG), the

Independent Colleges and Universities of Florida (ICUF), and

testing agencies while always keeping the needs of the employee’s

institution at the center of decision-making.

Message from the President

reetings and welcome to the 4th Annual FACTA Conference. It is such a pleasure to be here at College of Central Florida in beautiful and historic Ocala. As President for 2013, I intend to continue the FACTA vision by focusing on redefining committee objectives and

encouraging member involvement.

For FACTA to keep the dream alive there must continue to be strong member involvement. The membership is the key. My number one goal is to grow our membership while at the same time increase member commitment. We need to take the time to engage the membership in key decision making, ask for suggestions, and ask how as an organization we can make changes that will benefit all. We must keep our mission focused by continuing to work in partnerships with the Florida Department of Education (FLDOE), the Florida Board of Governors (BOG), the Independent Colleges and Universities of Florida (ICUF), and the testing agencies while always keeping the needs of the employee’s institution at the center of decision making.

As I start my new journey, I have to thank all the past presidents who set a strong foundation for me to follow. I will continue to focus on objectives that were important to them and create new objectives for the future. The journey will always have the same destination, but I will make some small detours along the way.

This year’s conference theme ―New Trends in Testing‖ will focus on test security and the surge in Distance Learning. The keynote speaker will be Dr. Lou Woodruff. We are most appreciative of our FACTA business members who are supporting us again this year: ACT/COMPASS; Assessment Technologies Institute, LLC; College Board: ACCUPLACER & CLEP; CTB/McGraw-Hill; McCann Associates; Pearson; and Wonderlic. Also, we welcome our four new business members (Exam Ave. LCC, Prometric, RegisterBlast, and Lenovo-Stoneware). Two of them, Dario Cuicas from Prometric and Dwight Pittman from RegisterBlast, will be presenting at our conference this year.

To all FACTA members and sponsors, thank you for your continued support.
