The funded project by Erasmus + program has entered its last phase where 8 institutional members of EBMA collaboratively worked on the development of an Online Adaptive International Progress Test Project (OAIPT). The item bank with all European progress test items is now consisting of 1400  items and new items will be added by the support of automatic item generation.

The OAIPT consortia planned a perfect dissemination day to share our project outcomes with all educational professionals working in the area.

In fact, on the 30th of October 2021, a multiplier event for the Online Adaptive International Progress Test Project (OAIPT) has been organised and will take place on the lovely island of Madeira.

During the event, participants will have the opportunity to learn about the most recent advances in Progress Testing as well as the outcomes of the OAIPT project.

Registrations are currently open and any questions can be sent to training@b-acis.pt.
