2022 RETA Breeze Nov-Dec
RETA TESTING CORNER NO. 33
RETA’S CERTIFICATION COMMITTEE
RETA’s Certification Committee (Cert Comm) invests considerable time and effort into keeping all RETA credentialing examinations fair, valid and secure. Their work at the 2022 RETA Annual Confer ence in Reno, NV, in November 2022 led to rescoring 80 CIRO and CRST exams based on changes in test content that emerged from 13 hours of CertComm reviews. After CertComm’s revisions were applied to candidate scores, 19 CIRO and three CRST candidates moved from Fail to Pass. All 22 were notified that they qualified for their RETA credentials based on this rescoring. Five
also received refunds for RETA exams they completed after the exam that changed their status. Criteria for these reviews begin with evaluating how candidates perform on all CARO, CIRO and CRST questions. CertComm reviews all questions with performance data that indicates that high-scoring candidates found challeng ing. CertComm also reviews any question that draws comments from candidates after their exams. Prepara
