| COLLEGE OF THE REDWOODS | Board of Trustees Policy No. 504 |
TESTING AND COUNSELING
The Board of Trustees believes that evaluation by tests of student aptitude, abilities
and achievements can be a vital tool for increasing the effectiveness of the educational
program for each student. While the Board believes that a testing program is a valuable
took, it also believes that the program should be voluntary and optional for the student.
The College shall employ only those tests which serve to diagnose the strengths and
weaknesses of each student so that the student may be provided with the educational
program that best meets his/her needs.
Tests administered to the students of this College may include those which measure:
a. general and specific aptitude
b. mental ability
c. vocational inventories
d. personal adjustments
e. achievement in specific subject areas
